Our Neurosciences Seminar Series brings together the Stanford neuroscience community to discuss cutting-edge, cross-disciplinary brain research, from biochemistry to behavior and beyond.
Topics include new discoveries in fundamental neurobiology; advances in human and translational neuroscience; insights from computational and theoretical neuroscience; and the development of novel research technologies and neuro-engineering breakthroughs.
Unless otherwise noted, seminars are held Thursdays at 12:00 noon PT in the Gunn Rotunda of the Stanford Neurosciences Building.
Join us before the seminar for coffee, cookies, and conversation with colleagues, starting at 11:45 am.
