[#DIV28M] Neuro Data Blitz at SEPA

For our friends in the Southeast (or for those who just like to visit), please see this information about a new dedicated Neuro Data Blitz session at the 2018 SEPA Meeting (March 6-9, 2018 in Charleston SC).

Neuro Data Blitz info:

This symposium aims to encourage student presentations and collaborative research endeavors.  The symposium will highlight recent work in our understanding of neuroscience and behavior, featuring presentations by primarily undergraduate and graduate students. These brief presentations ("blitz") are restricted to 3 slides and a total of 5 minutes.  Presentations may feature both human or animal models and explore topics across the field of neuroscience. The speakers will also have the opportunity to present their work at greater length during SEPA poster sessions. 

 

A Data Blitz is a fast-paced, high-throughput session in which participants present 5 minute, 3-slide talks, meant to highlight a single particular finding.  The goal of the session is to provide a rapid review of a broad array of high-quality abstracts around a central theme, which are then presented in more detail in further poster sessions.  Authors submitting an abstract will have the option of indicating whether they'd like their abstract to be considered for the Data Blitz Session. Selected abstracts will then be scheduled into the Data Blitz session, in addition to a poster session. Talks will be given by the abstract's first author — students at any level are particularly encouraged to apply.
