The major goal of the meeting is to bring together scientists whose interests are in the broad area of understanding the neural control of behavior. We cordially invite members and nonmembers alike to attend our Annual Meeting. The program will include plenary lectures, oral communications, and poster sessions. Topics will focus on a number of themes including, but not limited to: Learning, Memory, and Neuronal Plasticity; Ingestive Behavior; Drugs of Abuse and Psychopharmacology; Behavioral Endocrinology; Behavioral Genetics; and Psychoneuroimmunology.
The Program Committee is soliciting abstracts for oral and poster presentations. Abstracts may be prepared on any subject related to the general area of behavioral neuroscience. Both members and nonmembers may submit abstracts. More than one abstract may be submitted by each author. Only abstracts which are submitted electronically will be accepted. Late abstracts will be considered for the poster sessions only. The deadline for the receipt of abstracts is January 14, 2008. Late abstracts will be considered until April 1 for poster presentation only. Abstract fees are $40 prior to Jan. 14 and $50 for abstracts submitted after Jan. 14.
