Conference Description
This conference has been deferred to 2023 due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Please check back soon for the 2023 schedule.
The Gordon Research Seminar on Cerebellum 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.
The Cerebellum Gordon Research Seminar will bring together cerebellar research trainees to enhance their expertise through exchanging ideas and teaching each other about leading developments in their diverse subdisciplines.
Cerebellar research is crucial to understanding motor control and associative learning, as well as the numerous motor and non-motor disorders in which the cerebellum has been implicated. This Cerebellum Gordon Research Seminar will highlight new insights into cerebellar development and function from behavioral, therapeutic, physiological, and computational perspectives.

Program Format
Gordon Research Seminars are 2-day meetings which take place on the Saturday and Sunday just prior to the start of the associated GRC. The GRS opens with a 1-hour introductory session on Saturday afternoon, followed by a poster session, dinner and a 2-hour session in the evening. Sunday morning begins with breakfast and is followed by another 2-hour session, a second poster session, and lunch. A final 1-hour session takes place just after lunch, and the associated GRC begins later that evening.
