Neuroscience2012, the 35th annual meeting of Japan Neuroscience Society (JNSS)
(Chairperson: Dr. Kozo Kaibuchi), will be held at Nagoya Congress Center, in Nagoya, Japan, from September 18th to 21st, 2012.

The Japan Neuroscience Society (JNS) actively promotes basic, clinical and translational studies across the fields of neuroscience, thereby contributing to society through the advancement of human welfare and cultural enrichment. Neuroscience has been remarkably enriched during recent years with many new methodologies and research paradigms from the molecular, genetic, and cellular levels through neural networks, behavior, and theory. Neuroscience is now rapidly growing beyond basic research in the natural sciences (which also include medicine, pharmacology, engineering, and agriculture) to expand further into the disciplines of the humanities, social sciences and arts. Through the integrated study of neuroscience, it can now be hoped that the brain mechanisms underlying the human mind will be understood within the foreseeable future.

Neuroscience2012 offers Travel Awards to the non-Japanese students and post-docs traveling from abroad to present high quality papers at the meeting. The funding for travel will be between 40,000-150,000 JPY per award depending on the travel distance, up to 40 awardees. The awardees will also be exempt from the registration fee of the meeting. Those from Asian countries are particularly encouraged. The submission of Travel Award applications should be made between February 8th (Wed.), 2012 and March 7th (Wed.), 2012.
