The NIH Neuroscience Seminar Series features lectures and discussions with leading neuroscientists. Sponsored by NINDS, NIMH, NIA, NIDCD, NIDA, NICHD, NEI, NIAAA, NIDCR, NHGRI and NCCIH, the series offers seminars on aspects of molecular, cellular, developmental and cognitive neuroscience as well as neuroscience related topics in disease, pain, and genetics.
Seminars are held on most Mondays from Noon to 1:00 pm (ET) in the Porter Neuroscience Bldg., room 620/630, on the NIH Bethesda Campus. There will be no virtual option this season. Speakers will choose if they wish to have their seminar recorded and archived. If they agree the seminar will be available on the NIH Videocast site under Past Events. If you wish to meet with the speaker during their visit, please contact the seminar host listed on the below schedule to make those arrangements.
For additional information about the series and seminar details, please contact MaryCatherine Hellmuth at 301-435-2232, or marycatherine.hellmuth@nih.gov.
