Beschreibung: 

The Inhibition in the CNS GRS provides a unique forum for young doctoral and post-doctoral researchers to present their work, discuss new methods, cutting-edge ideas, and pre-published data, as well as to build collaborative relationships with their peers. Experienced mentors and trainee moderators will facilitate active participation in scientific discussions to allow all attendees to be engaged participants rather than spectators.

We are very excited to introduce you to the Inhibition in the CNS GRS 2025, also called Global Inhibitory Cascades in the CNS!

The GRS program will dive into three key topics: 1) the distinctive roles of subcortical GABAergic neurons and their impact on behavior and network dynamics, 2) the modulation of inhibitory processes, encompassing factors such as glial cells, neuromodulators, the immune system, and others, and 3) insights derived from computational modeling and analyses.

Our mission goes beyond scientific inquiry, and it is about fostering a collaborative community with a diverse representation of scientists. We want everyone to engage in discussions covering theoretical, computational, and experimental aspects of inhibition, spanning micro to macro scales. In addition to the core program, we're breaking down barriers and building connections with engaging events. This includes a mixer dinner on the first evening of the GRS where trainees working on relevant topics will be matched into groups, and a mentorship lunch on the second afternoon where early career researchers and doctoral students will be matched with experienced attendees for a seamless introduction to the GRS community. Our focus on inclusivity means that we will encourage applications from underrepresented countries, demographics, and labs. In order to create an engaging and enriching conference, we're limiting the acceptance of 1-2 trainees per lab until representation goals are met.

This conference is designed to be inclusive, and we are committed to making it accessible to everyone. We have compiled a list of local summer camps that can be utilized for childcare purposes. Additionally, the venue provides a lactation room and family-friendly activities. Disabilities and dietary needs will be accommodated, and you will be able to make these requests at the time of registration. Pronoun labels for conference name tags will also be available. For more information, please refer to the 'Venue and Travel Information' link above.

We encourage eligible attendees to apply for the Carl Storm Underrepresented Minority Fellowship, and we'll nominate qualifying individuals for the International Diversity and PUI Fellowships.

Contact us if you have any questions or concerns- we are here to make your experience unforgettable. Join us at Inhibition in the CNS 2025 GRS for a blend of science, community, and discovery.
