Featured Lectures
Dialogues Between Neuroscience and Society
Bringing Change to Mind on Mental Illness Glenn Close www.bringchange2mind.org Support contributed by: Elsevier Saturday, Nov. 13, 11 a.m. 1 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Join award-winning actress and advocate Glenn Close for a discussion of how science and society can work together to change minds on mental illness. BringChange2Mind.org, which Close founded, aims to combat the stigma associated with mental illness. While the next decade will bring sustained progress in uncovering the biological bases of mental illness, much work must be done to help the American public understand that mental illness is brain disease. How do we reduce misconceptions, stigma, and bias that confront those with conditions like depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD? With mental illness increasingly recognized as a global health challenge and science poised for continued discovery, how can we help the public discern fact from fiction to bring positive change for families struggling with mental illness?

Fred Kavli Distinguished International Scientist Lecture


Understanding Sound Processing in the Auditory System: Advances Rooted in the Genetic Approach CME Christine Petit, MD, PhD College de France & Pasteur Institute Support contributed by: The Kavli Foundation Sunday, Nov. 14, 10 11:10 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Gain an understanding of the principles of acoustic signal processing underlying auditory scene analysis as well as perception of music and spoken language with emphasis on how the cochlea and auditory neurons operate. Advances in deciphering molecular mechanisms of sound processing will be illustrated for the mechano-electrical transduction. In addition, hear about the physiological properties of the auditory organ revealed by the study of mouse models lacking specific cochlear structures.

Peter and Patricia Gruber Lecture


Brain Circuits for Active Vision Robert H. Wurtz, PhD National Eye Institute/National Institutes of Health Support contributed by: Peter and Patricia Gruber Foundation Sunday, Nov. 14, 2:30 3:40 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Our stunning visual perception results from coupling a high resolution fovea with eye movements that direct it toward threats and treats. These movements, however, require brain mechanisms for shifting attention to the next foveal target and compensating for the movement produced visual disruptions. This lecture considers the integrated system in the primate brain that both moves the eyes and contributes to the attentional shifts and visual compensations. A major segment of this system acts via ascending thalamic pathways and provides insight into cortical modulation by the thalamus.

Presidential Special Lecture


Adventures in Nontranslational Research: Neuronal Differentiation and Mechanosensory Transduction in C. elegans CME Martin Chalfie, PhD Columbia University Saturday, Nov. 13, 5:15 6:25 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Although the molecular mechanisms that allow us to sense light or chemicals are known, the transduction molecules for our mechanical senses are not. Using traditional and molecular genetics, we have identified genes needed for the development and function of touch-sensing cells in Caenorhabditis elegans. Electrophysiological studies demonstrate that several genes encode proteins that form a channel complex that transduces touch. The interaction of this complex with lipid is critical for its function.

Presidential Special Lecture


Motivational Neuronal Circuits for Value, Salience, and Information CME Okihide Hikosaka, MD, PhD National Eye Institute/National Institutes of Health Support contributed by: Johnson & Johnson Sunday, Nov. 14, 5:15 6:25 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Recently, we found that the inhibitory connection from the lateral habenula (LHb) to midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons plays an important role in behavioral choice based on motivational value. Another group of DA neurons were less influenced by the LHb and instead encoded motivational salience. DA neurons also encoded preference for information about future rewards. This lecture addresses how these neuronal signals help animals to construct a road map to optimal behavioral choice.

David Kopf Lecture on Neuroethics


The Neuroscience Revolution and Society Henry T. Greely, JD Stanford University Support contributed by: David Kopf Instruments Monday, Nov. 15, 10 11:10 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 The onrushing revolution in neuroscience will change not just science and medicine, but all aspects of human society. This lecture outlines six different ways neuroscience will affect society, through findings that concern prediction, mindreading, responsibility, consciousness, treatment for disfavored behaviors, and cognitive enhancement. The lecture will end by suggesting ways in which neuroscience might more deeply affect our understandings of our fellow humans and of ourselves.

Presidential Special Lecture


Learning to See Late in Life CME Pawan Sinha, PhD Massachusetts Institute of Technology Support contributed by: Pfizer, Inc. Monday, Nov. 15, 5:15 6:25 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 We open our eyes and see a world that makes sense, easily parsing the visual array into meaningful objects. To study this process, we have recently launched Project Prakash a synergistic humanitarian and scientific initiative that helps provide sight to congenitally blind children, and characterizes their subsequent visual development. The effort has provided insights into the early stages of learning to see, while improving the lives of children who were otherwise doomed to a life of blindness.

Special Presentation
A Neuroscience Moonshot: Rallying a New Global Race for Brain Research Rep. Patrick J. Kennedy (D-RI) U.S. House of Representatives Monday, Nov. 15, 1 2 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Rep. Kennedy is a tireless advocate for biomedical research and for people who struggle with brainbased illnesses. Recipient of SfNs 2002 Public Service Award, Kennedy will highlight his vision for a new campaign for brain research; the urgency of helping a generation of veterans affected by PTSD and TBI; and why the broad brain community must join forces to advance national and global research agendas. He will discuss how compelling public advocacy combined with growing science funding can help realize major advances in basic research and translational application for all brain-based conditions.

History of Neuroscience Lecture


Cell and Molecular Neurobiology: Antecedents and Achievements Victor P. Whittaker, PhD Max Planck Institute Support contributed by: AstraZeneca Tuesday, Nov. 16, 2:30 3:40 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 In this session we will review the emergence of cell biology and its successful application to the nervous system. Author, George Gray, isolated a transmitterrich particulate fraction that was identified as consisting of detached, sealed presynaptic nerve terminals, which retain most of the functions of the intact nerve terminal. These were named synaptosomes. Later work enabled Gray to isolate synaptic vesicles and to show the functional and metabolic heterogeneity of the synaptic vesicle population.

Albert and Ellen Grass Lecture


Dendrites, From Form to Function CME Yuh Nung Jan, PhD and Lily Jan, PhD University of California, San Francisco Support contributed by: The Grass Foundation Monday, Nov. 15, 3:15 4:25 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Different types of neurons display dendrites with distinct branching patterns a hallmark feature that enables neurons to receive and process information properly. This lecture summarizes what we have learned as to how dendrites form and organize among themselves and how dendritic ion channels are regulated by synaptic activities and in turn modulate neuronal activity and synaptic plasticity. Presenters will discuss implications to the etiology of neurological diseases and mental disorders.

Presidential Special Lecture


Tuning Depression Circuits Using Deep Brain Stimulation CME Helen S. Mayberg, MD Emory University Support contributed by: Lundbeck Research USA Tuesday, Nov. 16, 5:15 6:25 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Advances in neuroimaging have shifted the focus from psychological and neurochemical theories of depression to more anatomically-based, systems-level models. The impact of this shift is demonstrated by the recent testing of a novel intervention for intractable depression based on one such network model: deep brain stimulation of the subcallosal cingulate white matter. Dr. Mayberg will discuss the theoretical and data-driven foundation for this new procedure as well as clinical results from ongoing studies.

Special Lectures
Theme A: Development
Connecting Motor Circuits CME Silvia Arber, PhD Biozentrum, University of Basel Sunday, Nov. 14, 1 2:10 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Motor behavior represents the ultimate output of most nervous system activity and is mediated by precisely connected neuronal circuits. This lecture covers recent progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in specification and connectivity of motor circuits in the spinal cord. A hierarchy of sophisticated molecular programs is at the core of controlling diversification of neuronal subpopulations and precision of neuronal connectivity to generate functional circuits. Rewiring the Brain: Activity-Dependent Neurotransmitter Specification CME Nicholas C. Spitzer, PhD University of California, San Diego Wednesday, Nov. 17, 11:30 a.m. 12:40 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Neuronal circuits signal largely through the release of neurotransmitters and activation of their receptors. Ever since Loewis and Dales discovery of the chemical synapse, it has been believed that transmitters are fixed characteristics of neuronal identity. This lecture summarizes recent studies demonstrating that electrical activity and calcium signaling can change the transmitters neurons use, with corresponding changes in transmitter receptors on postsynaptic cells. Physiological sensory stimuli trigger this plasticity in both young and mature nervous systems.

Joining the Dots: Epigenetics, Plasticity, and the Circadian Clock CME Paolo Sassone-Corsi, PhD University of California, Irvine Sunday, Nov. 14, 11:30 a.m. 12:40 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Neuronal plasticity is intimately associated with genomic control. Yet, there is much more to the genome than DNA sequence, permitting variability beyond the double helix. Plasticity may be obtained through epigenetic mechanisms, based on a variety of DNA and chromatin remodeling processes. Complex programs of gene expression characterize most neuronal functions, among which circadian cycles represent a paradigm for dynamic chromatin transitions. In this lecture, Dr. Sassone-Corsi discusses recent advances that reveal unexpected links between circadian regulators, chromatin remodeling, and cellular metabolism.

Theme C: Disorders of the Nervous System


Toward Understanding Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder CME Pamela Sklar, MD, PhD Massachusetts General Hospital, Broad Institute Tuesday, Nov. 16, 1 2:10 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Understanding the causes of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder poses a series of special challenges. Over the last few years, application of modern genomics technologies to large clinical samples has led to a series of key findings. Soon, data from large whole genome and exome sequencing will provide valuable information about rarer variation. The presenter discusses how these findings together will be the building blocks for understanding the overall genetic architecture the number, frequency, effect size, and interaction of the risk alleles for these disorders. Amyloid Imaging: Impact on the Study of Alzheimers Disease CME William E. Klunk, MD, PhD Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic Wednesday, Nov. 17, 10 11:10 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 The first convincing images of in vivo amyloid imaging were presented at ICAD-2002 in Stockholm. In the eight years that have passed, great progress and expansion of amyloid imaging studies have occurred. Imaging with the amyloid tracer, Pittsburgh Compound-B (PiB) has been included in ADNI. More than 50 centers worldwide are performing in vivo amyloid imaging studies with PiB, or newer, usually F-18-labeled tracers. This talk will review the development of this new field.

Theme B: Neural Excitability, Synapses, and Glia: Cellular Mechanisms


Architecture, Symmetry, and Mechanism of Ionotropic Glutamate Receptors CME Eric Gouaux, PhD Oregon Health & Science University, Vollum Institute/ Howard Hughes Medical Institute Saturday, Nov. 13, 2 3:10 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 Glutamate mediates the majority of fast synaptic neurotransmission in the human brain by acting on three subfamilies of ionotropic glutamate receptors AMPA, kainate, and NMDA and opening cation-permeable ion channels. Despite the cloning of these genes ~20 years ago, only recently have we obtained an understanding of relationships between molecular structure and function in the context of an intact receptor. The presenter will describe the architecture and internal symmetry of iGluRs, illustrating how structural advances have enriched our understanding of receptor mechanism and function.

Theme D: Sensory and Motor Systems


Modern Genetic and Viral Tools for the Dissection of Neural Circuits CME Edward M. Callaway, PhD The Salk Institute for Biological Studies Monday, Nov. 15, 8:30 9:40 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Ballroom 20 To understand how neural circuits function, it is necessary to resolve connectivity with high resolution, correlate connectivity with function, and manipulate activity of defined circuit components.

Transcriptional Control Mechanisms in Axon Growth and Regeneration CME
Chair: Jeffrey L. Goldberg, MD, PhD Wednesday, Nov. 17, 8:30 11 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6A

The failure of axon regeneration in the mammalian central nervous system remains a major problem in basic and clinical neuroscience, relevant both to understanding neural development, as well as approaching neural injury and degenerative disease. Recent advances in our understanding of the neurons intrinsic mechanisms of axon growth regulation during development and in the adult have pointed toward transcriptional and translational controls. This symposium highlights molecular mechanisms recently found to play a role in these processes, from chromatin level processing through complex transcription factor interactions through mRNA stabilization.

Exocytotic release of transmitters is mediated by the ternary SNARE complex comprised of syntaxin 1, SNAP25, and synaptobrevin 2. The form of this complex is consistent with its function in the positioning of vesicles to the plasma membrane and their fusion to it. The recent advances in single molecule techniques, however, bring an additional layer of complexity to this process. The symposium provides a fertile ground for discussions regarding the new information that single molecule techniques can provide in unveiling the mechanism(s) of exocytosis.

It is becoming clear that amyloid- peptides do not account for all the observations related to AD pathogenesis. Diverse findings support the view that non-amyloid factors contribute significantly to AD. Recent studies have uncovered potential mechanisms that could be operative in disease.

The Cerebellum and the Adaptive Control of Movements CME


Chair: Reza Shadmehr, PhD Wednesday, Nov. 17, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6B

Every cell and tissue in the body needs to maintain protein homeostasis, or proteostasis, to function optimally. The proteostasis network maintains the proper expression, translation, folding, and trafficking of proteins. Dysregulation of proteostasis occurs with age and as a result of missense mutations, leading to disease. This symposium describes key concepts of the proteostasis network, its role in age-associated pathologies and potential as a therapeutic target in neurodegenerative diseases. The Neuregulin Pathway: From Neural Function to Psychiatric Disorders CME
Chair: Andres Buonanno, PhD Co-chair: David A. Talmage, PhD Wednesday, Nov. 17, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6A

Tinnitus is a phantom sensation (ringing of the ears) that impairs quality of life for millions around the world and for soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. Most cases are associated with hearing impairment caused by noise exposure or the aging process. This symposium reports ground breaking research into how tinnitus is generated and modulated by the brain when hearing loss occurs. The findings have implications for public policy and for mechanisms of normal auditory perception. Visceral Nociception: Bidirectional Interaction Between the Viscera and Brain CME
Chair: Matthew O. Fraser, PhD Monday, Nov. 15, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6B

Motor commands vary because of noise and changing expectations of reward, and response of muscles vary because of fatigue and changing dynamics of the environment. Despite this, the healthy brain produces accurate movements. Here, we present neurophysiological and neuropsychological basis of this compensatory process, suggesting the cerebellum monitors the motor commands as a movement unfolds, and learns from previous errors to compensate for their variability.

Chair: Tracy L. Bale, PhD Co-chair: Frances A. Champagne, PhD Monday, Nov. 15, 8:30 11 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6A

Neuregulin and its receptor ErbB4 regulate neurodevelopment and are associated with psychiatric disorders. The symposium presents novel findings that emphasize how neuregulin signaling: (1) regulates migration/survival of GABAergic neurons critical for neural network activity; (2) regulates glutamatergic, dopaminergic and cholinergic neurotransmission; (3) modulates hippocampal and cortical circuits; and (4) influences animal behaviors that model psychiatric disorders.

This session describes normal nociceptive processing from pelvic viscera to the spinal cord, brain stem and the brain and how changes along this pathway may result in functional pain syndromes. For most, integration of input and modulatory signals occurs within and between each level, resulting in awareness of injury until healed. In functional pain syndromes, anomalous interoceptive influences at one or more levels may cause chronic hyperalgesia even without a noxious stimulus. The Molecules and Cells of Mammalian Touch CME

This symposium discusses the latest information on transgenerational epigenetic inheritance of stress-mediated traits and the molecular mechanisms behind them. This fast-paced field has moved into 2nd and 3rd generations to identify novel epigenetic programming events involved in disease risk. The expert speakers will discuss stress influences across developmental time points utilizing cutting-edge analyses including evaluation of miRNAs, histones, and DNA methylation.

Brain plasticity and learning in the adult brain are well established. Yet adult brain plasticity remains more restricted in its scope than developmental plasticity, a major limitation in rehabilitation of function. This symposium addresses the conditions under which brain plasticity and learning can be facilitated in the adult brain, taking the visual system as a model of choice. Brakes to plasticity in adulthood will be reviewed. The ways genetic, pharmacological, and behavioral interventions may overcome these brakes will be discussed.

Among the mammalian senses, touch remains the most enigmatic at the molecular level. Our brains distinguish an astonishing assortment of tactile features, such as textures, shapes and vibration, in our surroundings.

Theme F: Cognition and Behavior


The Critical Role of Cues and Contexts in Reward: Relevance for Addiction CME
Chair: Paul Vezina, PhD Sunday, Nov. 14, 8:30 11 a.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6F

To make adaptive behavioral choices, information from the internal milieu and the external world needs to be constantly evaluated and integrated. Recent observations implicate specialized peptidergic neurons in the lateral hypothalamus as playing important roles in sensing metabolic need and coordinating reward-driven, goal-directed behaviors such as eating with physical activity and autonomic outflow. They are thus promising targets for developing therapies to rebalance eating and energy expenditure in the fight against obesity, diabetes, and the metabolic syndrome.

It has become increasingly clear that interactions between primary rewards and the stimuli associated with them are complex and involve more than the simple elicitation of conditional responses by drug-paired cues. This symposium discusses the critical role played by reward related cues and contexts in the control of drug-induced behaviors in both human and non-human animals as well as the potential neurobiological mechanisms involved, with an emphasis on how they may contribute to addictive behavior.

Erasing Fear Memories with Extinction CME
Chair: Gregory J. Quirk, PhD Co-chair: Dennis Pare, PhD Tuesday, Nov. 16, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6A

Extinction of learned fears is the basis of exposure-based therapies for anxiety disorders in which the patient is repeatedly exposed to trauma-eliciting stimuli within a safe context. Decades of psychological research have taught us that extinction does not erase the original fear memory, but instead forms a new inhibitory memory, which may or may not prevent expression of fear memories. However, recent adaptations of extinction can lead to editing or elimination of the original fear memory. Speakers will describe these new findings and implications for the treatment of anxiety disorders.

Regulation of the Postsynaptic Cytoskeleton: Roles in Development, Plasticity, and Disorders CME
Chair: Scott Soderling, PhD Sunday, Nov. 14, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 30E

Slow-wave sleep is characterized by a slow oscillation (<1 Hz) that appears as an alternation of active (UP) and silent (DOWN) states. Synchronous neuronal activity during slow oscillation generates EEG slow waves. How does this activity start and terminate when all neurons are in the same state? Does thalamus or cortical glial cells play a role in the generation of slow waves? Do human and animal brains generate slow waves in the same way? This symposium addresses these questions.

The embryonic diencephalon gives rise to both the vertebrate thalamus and hypothalamus. Recent work has begun to shed light on the molecular pathways that guide the development of these structures. The session highlights advances in understanding control of early regional patterning, neuronal cell fate specification, and the formation and environmental modification of neural circuitry in both thalamus and hypothalamus.

Chair: Birte U. Forstmann, PhD Co-chair: Hauke R. Heekeren, MD, PhD Wednesday, Nov. 17, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 30E

The optogenetic toolbox involves genetically encoded actuators and reporters, proteins that allow using light to control or to monitor molecular processes in neural systems. Optical methods enable fast and spatially well resolved experimental manipulations and measurements. A first generation of genetically-encoded calcium reporters, fluorescent proteins, and neural activators has already had great impact on neuroscience; a second generation of voltage reporters, neural silencers, and extended fluorescent proteins bears great promise to continue this revolution. Speakers will be particularly encouraged to highlight limitations of the presently available optogenic tools and discuss where the technologies are headed in the future.

Exploring Interdisciplinary Pathways: Enriching Neuroscience Research by Connecting to Educational Practice and Theory
Chair: Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, EdD Co-chair: Thomas Carew, PhD Sunday, Nov. 14, 1:30 4 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 29D

Endocannabinoid signaling is an important regulator of transmitter release and synaptic signaling. Recent research has demonstrated a potentially important role for this system in the regulation of physiological, neuroendocrine, and behavioural response to stress. The current minisynposium provides an overview of the mechanisms by which endocannabinoid signaling integrates into both the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and the limbic structures subserving regulation of this neuroendocrine axis.

To understand how the brain makes decisions, recent work in the neurosciences has started to make use of formal models of behavior. Such model-based analyses bridge the gap between brain and behavior and facilitate the testing of theories for cognition. This minisymposium provides an overview of the rapidly advancing field of model-based neuroimaging, including simple two-choice response tasks as well as work on more complex decision-making situations that involve pharmacological challenges.

Recent discussion in the SfN community has focused on the benefit to education of collaborations among neuroscientists and school teachers. This session begins the essential complementary discussion, addressing how neuroscience research itself can be strengthened by an educational perspective. Cognitive neuroscientists doing research with an integral connection to education will discuss the unique contribution of the educational component, as well as intellectual, pragmatic, and ethical issues.

Genes, Photons, and Electrons: New Solutions for Problems in Systems Neuroscience
Friday, Nov. 12, 7:30 a.m. 5:30 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6B Organizer: Michael Hausser, DPhil Contact: Liz Larabell, llarabell@sfn.org

The last decade has seen a dramatic resurgence of interest in systems neuroscience, together with new optimism that many of its longstanding problems can soon be solved. This has been driven in part by the growing realization that an understanding at the level of the neural circuit is essential if we are to link the cellular and molecular properties of neurons and synaptic connections to behavior; and by the development of a range of new technologies for manipulating neural circuits with unprecedented temporal and spatial precision. This course brings together tool developers at the forefront of these advances and those who are applying new tools to address longstanding challenges in systems neuroscience. Lecturers span the range of approaches and levels involved in the modern study of neural circuits, from new genetically encoded probes for circuit tracing and activity monitoring, to new imaging and electrophysiological

approaches for dissecting activity patterns in defined neural populations during behavior, to new methods for manipulating activity in intact circuits to make causal links between circuit elements and behavior. Emphasis will be on defining the key open questions in systems neuroscience and how new tools can be used to solve them, and on comparing practical advantages and limitations of various methods, with a view toward future developments. This day-long course consists of a series of lectures, followed by informal breakout sessions.

Posttranscriptional Regulation in Nervous System Development and Plasticity
Friday, Nov. 12, 8 a.m. 6 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 6F Organizers: Kenneth S. Kosik, MD; Sourav Banerjee, PhD Contact: Liz Larabell, llarabell@sfn.org

Obesity represents an escalating global health threat that predisposes millions of individuals to a plethora of comorbid illnesses and reduced life expectancy, and incurs $117 billion in annual health care costs in the United States alone. Pharmacologic therapies to decrease appetite and increase energy expenditure would be useful in preventing and treating obesity, but the limited understanding of the neural and molecular mechanisms that regulate these processes previously hindered the development of truly effective long-term therapies. Recent work has made important inroads into the neural mechanisms underlying the control of energy balance, and ongoing research promises to continue apace. This workshop focuses on the neurobiology of energy balance, with a major focus on the processes that control eating. Starting with the description of the obesity syndrome, patient experience, and the physiologic systems that modulate feeding and energy balance, the morning sessions will present the pertinent neural systems and their interaction with peripheral cues and current treatment options and their theoretical and practical limitations. In the afternoon, interactive workshop sessions delve into issues and methodology relating to the neural regulators of energy homeostasis (including hypothalamic, hindbrain, and reward centers), as well as important environmental, hormonal, and developmental regulators of these systems. Neuroimaging and genetic methods will be covered, along with pharmacologic approaches to intervention. Participants will leave with a broad exposure to the current state of our knowledge of the pathophysiology of this profound public health challenge. Target audience: graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and assistant professors. Registration is limited and only available online.

The microRNAs are a cytoplasmic layer of posttranscriptional control comparable in complexity to the transcriptional control system in the nucleus. As a system miRNA target sets are capable of revealing functional networks of transcripts and their local roles in dendrites have revealed much about plasticity. miRNA biology also has opened a broad window on developmental neurobiology. Using a diversity of model systems, the course highlights the growing realms of RNA-mediated regulation. This day-long course consists of a series of lectures, followed by informal breakout sessions.

The ultimate promise of pluripotent stem cell research is the potential to create customized genetically matched cells that, when transplanted, will repair and replace damaged tissues. Researchers are exploring the therapeutic potential of pluripotent stem cells by differentiating into neural precursors and evaluate their migration, subtype specification and functional integration after transplantation. More recently, researchers asked whether factor-induced reprogramming can be applied to other systems and have identified three transcription factors that could convert fibroblasts into functional neurons.

Two successes of systems neuroscience have been (1) quantitative models that give a good account of the mechanisms that produce signals in the visual cortex; and (2) techniques that identify contributions of these signals to perception in awake animals. However, many models deliver signals that are insufficient to support perception. These differences are well defined in binocular vision, providing an effective model system to improve our understanding of how early processing is specialized for perceptually relevant processing, and how this is related to perceptual judgments. Theresa Lee, PhD, University of Michigan How to Pick the Right Species for the Right Problem: Creating a Non-Standard Research Career

Songbirds provide a powerful animal model for the process of human speech learning. Because they have neural circuitry similar to all vertebrates but have a specialized subset of these for their vocal behavior, the study of brain-behavior relationships in the song pathways is simplified. Such study has recently begun to provide general insights into mechanisms of sensory and motor learning, with potential relevance to neuropsychiatric disease. The expert shares her enthusiasm for this system, as well as some science and thoughts on the plusses and minuses of working in a nonmammalian model and on being an MD/PhD.

Complex systems, when poised at the transition between order and disorder, exhibit scale-free, power law dynamics. These critical systems are highly adaptive and flexibly process and store information, which for decades prompted the conjecture that the brain might operate at criticality. Discovery of neuronal avalanches in superficial layers of cortex in 2001 provides solid experimental evidence that indeed the brain might be critical. Results demonstrate that neuronal avalanches and coherence potentials are signatures of critical network dynamics at which the cortex gains universal properties found at criticality. George Paxinos, PhD, Prince of Wales Medical Research Institute and The University of New South Wales Brain, Behavior, and Evolution
Manchester Grand Hyatt: Madeleine AB

The expert has chosen a variety of research problems that led to working with nonstandard lab animals. She will discuss how to think outside the box to come up with interesting research questions and select the best model systems for studying them. While using unusual models to study behavior, physiology, and neuroscience, the same principles can be applied to more molecular levels of analysis. The expert will provide examples of how different animal models can be developed, the benefits and drawbacks of not working with common lab animals, and how taking the uncommon path leads to an uncommon career. Jane Taylor, PhD, Yale University Why Sex Differences Should Matter to Neuroscientists
Manchester Grand Hyatt: Maggie

Hormones secreted from the adrenals after exposure to emotional encounters facilitate memory by initiating norepinephrine output in limbic regions. Hormones such as epinephrine cannot enter the brain to produce direct effects on structures that actively process memory. As such, the session will present a summary of the behavioral, electrophysiological and neurochemical approaches used to identify how neural pathways in the periphery convey the actions of arousal-related hormones to brainstem noradrenergic neurons to produce optimal mnemonic performance.

Support contributed by Yerkes National Primate Research Center, Emory University After collaborating with Luis Puelles to construct an atlas of the bird brain, Charles Watson and the expert became interested in what genetic markers can tell us about brain organization. Birds, incidentally, have a firstclass brain; they just have not had good public relations. Based on what was learned from work on the bird brain and subsequent validation on the mouse brain using transgenic mice, researchers constructed an ontology of the brain that can be found in BrainNavigator. The most controversial suggestion is that the pons do not exist as a subdivision of the brain in the same subordination as the rhombencephalon, mesencephalon, and diencephalon.

Navigating the SfN Meeting


Saturday, Nov. 13, 2 3:30 p.m. San Diego Convention Center: Room 3 Organizers: Jennifer Yates, PhD; David Riddle, PhD Contact: Liz Larabell, llarabell@sfn.org

Sex differences are being revealed in brain function and behavior. Recent studies have focused on the underlying genetic and molecular mechanisms. It is becoming clear that sex differences are not simply reflective of differences in sex hormones, but also in chromosomal complement. How sex differences impact learning, memory, and adaptive behavior both in health and psychiatric disease has become an emerging focus of my research. What are the advantages and disadvantages to incorporating the study of sex differences into research, and do we have an obligation to do so?

For first-timers, navigating the SfN annual meeting can be overwhelming and taking advantage of all the opportunities is challenging.

With increased competition for journal space and higher rates of rejection, often because of language, researchers who are not native English speakers are disadvantaged in efforts to publish their findings. Comprising a presentation in three sections preparations before writing, manuscript structure, and tips for getting published and a panel discussion with the editors of top journals, this workshop aims to improve publication success rates for researchers who are not native English speakers.

Poverty diminishes the health and well-being of those who are poor and limits their social and economic contributions to society. The impact of poverty on the developing individual is complex, but most of the causal pathways involve the brain. At this roundtable we will draw on human and animal research to address the neural mechanisms whereby childhood poverty impacts human capital, and discuss the economic and policy implications of this new knowledge.

With more than 100 law schools now offering at least one animal law course, the field has expanded dramatically in the past decade. With this growth comes an increased focus on seeking to grant animals the same rights as humans, or personhood, which would have significant ramifications for all research. How is this growing legal strategy already impacting animal research? What does its continued expansion mean for neuroscience, other research, and even the family pet? How should the science community engage to address this trend? The panel will address these questions. Breakfast will be served.

How to project a professional image has never been something we are trained for during our career development, but it is a critical determinant between getting a job or just getting interviews. If you have wondered about the secret to effectively presenting yourself and your brilliant science, and being highly influential when delivering your lectures in class or at scientific meetings, we are here to help!

Join the SfN Committee on Neuroscience Departments and Programs for its annual reception and presentation of the Award for Education in Neuroscience.

This years teaching workshop focuses on the undergraduate neuroscience curriculum and its match (or mismatch) with the expectations of graduate admissions committees. We will survey representative undergraduate programs, see detailed examples of the curriculum for two college programs (one that evolved from a psychology track and one centered in biology), and hear the expectations of three graduate admissions committees that seek prior strength in cellular and molecular biology, cognitive and systems neuroscience, or quantitative and physical sciences. The workshop will conclude with a general discussion, followed by breakout groups for faculty teaching similar courses.

This workshop provides information on funding sources to assist early career scientists (predoctoral fellows, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty) in transitioning to independent investigator. The focus will be on two career transition points: (1) from predoctoral to postdoctoral training, and (2) from postdoctoral fellow to first independent faculty position. Representatives of federal agencies and private foundations that provide fellowships for postdoctoral fellows and early career scientists will describe a variety of programs, some restricted to U.S. citizens and permanent residents (e.g., NIH National Research Service Awards and most K awards; NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowships and CAREER Awards) and others open to international trainees and investigators (e.g., the Fogarty International Center and American Heart Association). The presentations include information on strategies for selecting the most appropriate mechanism and preparing a competitive application. After the presentations and a question/answer period, representatives will be available to discuss specific programs and make appointments to meet with potential candidates.

Mentoring has long been recognized as a key means for promoting successful careers in science; in addition, recent literature validates mentoring as one of the most effective tools for increasing diversity in academic ranks. Our view of mentoring has recently expanded to include career development support that spans the entire life cycle of a neuroscientist, as well as the emergence of new, more flexible approaches in which a network of multiple mentors addresses a variety of career competencies. In this workshop, speakers will explore this expanding definition of mentoring, including the variety of approaches used, and its use as a powerful tool for promoting career development of minorities and women in neuroscience.

Speaker Resources
Nanosymposia, minisymposia, symposia, and lecture presenters are encouraged to check their media at least 24 hours in advance of presentation in the main Speaker-Ready Room, located in the San Diego Convention Center, Room 9, to confirm compatibility with the session room computers. Presenters using their own laptops MUST have a VGA 15 pin HD female video output cable. If the cable is not with the laptop computer being used, there is no way to connect it to the session room data/video projector.
NOTE: Many laptop computers use a special interface cable (e.g., DVI to VGA) to attach video out to the session room data/video projector.

Presentation Software for Nanosymposia, Minisymposia, Symposia, and Lectures


The ONLY available presentation software in each session room will be PowerPoint 2007 or Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 (PDF filebased). Presenters using other software (e.g., Mac-Keynote or PC-Corel Draw 12) should save their presentation in PowerPoint 2007 or Adobe Acrobat Reader 9. When saving a presentation into the recommended formats, remember to include the extension .ppt or .pdf, otherwise the session room computers will not recognize the file format.

Speaker Ready Room


San Diego Convention Center: Room 9 HOURS: Friday, Nov. 12 Wednesday, Nov. 17 7 a.m. 5 p.m.

A limited number of computers with open USB ports for PC-formatted USB flash drives and CD-ROM drives will be available in the Speaker Ready Room. Speakers are urged to check their media at least 24 hours prior to their presentation. As a courtesy to your fellow speakers, limit your viewing time to 10 minutes during non-peak times or 5 minutes during peak times.

Presenters must also have a copy of all external files, such as movie or sound files (e.g., .wav, .avi, .mpeg, etc.), contained within their PowerPoint presentations.

Recommended Presentation Storage Media


Presenters are urged to bring their presentation on a USB flash drive or CD-ROM to avoid setup delays between presentations. Macintosh users should note that Macs can write a PC-formatted readable USB flash drive and CD-ROM. Presenters should arrive in their session room at least 30 minutes prior to the start of the session to download their presentations onto the in-room computer hard drive.

Available Audiovisual Equipment for Nanosymposia, Minisymposia, Symposia, and Lectures


Although presenters are welcome to use a personal laptop for their presentation (see Tips for Presenter Using a Personal Laptop Computer below), the following audiovisual equipment will be set up in all session rooms: One data/video projector One PC computer with a CD-ROM player and an open USB port for flash drives One screen (mutiple screens for lectures) An audio system with microphones One laser pointer Projectionists to assist with audiovisual equipment set-up and operation

Tips for Presenters Using a Personal Laptop Computer


Presenters using their own laptop computers must be set up prior to the session start time to avoid setup time that will decrease their allotted presentation time. Presenters should be certain to have the most recent version/update of drivers installed.
NOTE: The laptop output resolution should be no more than XGA (1024x768). The native resolution on the data projectors are 1024 x 768 so higher resolutions will force the data projectors into a compression mode possibly losing some information or not projecting.

Poster Sessions
Projection equipment will not be available in the poster area, and there will be no wireless Internet access on the poster floor. No audiovisual orders will be accepted on-site.

Final Program Cover: The human enteric nervous system contains ~500 million neurons in 20 functional classes. All of these cells form from a small population of neural crest-derived cells that migrate through the bowel and vigorously proliferate before differentiating and extending neurites. This image shows a wholemount preparation of the mouse small bowel myenteric plexus after NADPH diaphorase histochemistry. Courtesy, with permission: Bhupinder P. S. Vohra, Ming Fu, and Robert O.

Wednesday Through Saturday Daily Book Cover: Layer III pyradimal cell of cerebral cortex of mouse from an original preparation of Santiago Ramn y Cajal impregnated with the Golgi method (P80001). Z-projection (32 sections; z-step, 2.072 m). Objective, 20; numerical aperture, 0.75 (ImageJ).

Each curve represents the BOLD response of a voxel fitted by a sinusoidal function. The dark and bright traces show the responses of cortical areas corresponding to the stimulus center and surround, respectively. The activation of two areas were negatively correlated when the center had high contrast (upper), and were negatively correlated when the center had low contrast (lower).

The labeling and imaging were performed with live dopaminergic neurons and show an extensive and uniform distribution of the transporter in the cells.

Proper protein trafficking into these distinct subcellular compartments is essential since cilia serve as the site for odorant detection. Courtesy, with permission: Paul M.

Martnez-Lpez, Rafael Lujn, and Rafael Fernndez-Chacn, 2010, The Journal of Neuroscience 30: 7377-7391 Author Index Book Cover: Sodium channel immunofluorescence in axons of retinal ganglion cells. Bundles of labeled ganglion cell axons (vertical tree trunks) run across the surface of the retina in this view of a flatmount retina stained with a pan-specific sodium channel antibody. The intensity scale is inverted so that bright objects appear black. In addition, short segments of intense sodium channel labeling (tree twigs) are found at the axon initial segments, between the axon bundles. More dimly labeled ganglion cell bodies (tree leaves) can also be seen. The sodium channels at the initial segment are a distinct subtype, Nav1.6, which is required for optimal repetitive firing of retinal ganglion cells.
