Description

This is a joint meeting of two European societies that are members of FENS: the European Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society (EMCCS) and the European Brain and Behaviour Society (EBBS).

YOU MUST REGISTER AT THIS SITE TO ATTEND THIS MEETING (registration to the FENS Forum does not grant access to this Satellite event!) WE ALSO KINDLY ASK EMCCS AND MCCS MEMBERS TO CONFIRM THEIR REGISTRATION HERE BY LOGIN AT WWW.EMCCS.ORG

In order the cover the expenses related to the organization we will have to charge an small fee (50 EUR for regular members; 25 EUR for pregraduate and Ph.D. students). The purpose of the registration fees is to cover the costs of coffee breaks and poster sessions. Lunch is not included in this price.

Deadlines
- Registration opens on FEBRUARY 5, 2016.
- Abstract submission closes on JUNE 10, 2016. Please submit your abstract early, specially if you would like to be selected for oral presentation or travel grant.
- Registration closes on JUNE 26, 2016.


About our Societies

The European Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society is an international association whose purpose is to advance the understanding of the molecular, cellular and network mechanisms that underlie cognitive function, and to promote education and public understanding of studies and findings in the field, including implications to health and society. We aim to reach these objectives by bringing together scientists of various backgrounds and by facilitating the integration of research between different disciplines.

More information about the goals and structure of the Society, as well as about previous meetings organized by us or our sister societies (MCCS and MCCS-Asia) can be found at: http://www.emccs.org

Since FENS 2004 in Lisbon, EMCCS has organized a satellite meeting previous to the FENS meeting. This year we introduce the important novelty of coordinating this satellite event with the European Brain and Behaviour Society (EBBS), of which purpose is the exchange of information between European scientists interested in the relationship of brain mechanisms and behaviour. The EBBS organizes a General Meeting every two years. In addition, topic-centered workshops are held.

The meeting will survey recent discoveries in the fields of molecular and cellular cognition with special emphasis on behavioral neuroscience. As in previous occasions, the meeting will be 2-day long. It will start in the afternoon of Thursday, June 30th and will continue with lectures until the evening of Friday, July 1st. There will be a “Wine and Cheese” and posters session in Thursday evening. There will be 27 oral presentations including 8 speakers chosen from submitted abstracts.
