Conference Description
The Gordon Research Seminar on Cell Biology of the Neuron is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting-edge ideas.
Our goal for this GRS is to foster an atmosphere and discussion that advances our understanding of cellular function of the neuron. Our program will embrace research that spans all facets of Neuronal Cell Biology, from molecular and cellular signaling, development, plasticity, trafficking, as well as disease. This meeting will feature a keynote lecture delivered by Avital Rodal, a leader in the fields of endosomal trafficking and membrane remodeling.
Attendees will participate by giving an oral presentation, serving as a discussion leader, and/or presenting a poster. In addition, we are planning a Career Development panel to provide young investigators with a "Hindsight 20/20" perspective on their developing careers.
