Liset Menendez de la Prida, leader of the partner CSIC team, will chair the minisymposium “Oscillations and Brain Function: Setting the Neuronal Tempo in Health and Disease CME” (summary) from the session “Neural Excitability, Synapses, and Glia: Cellular Mechanisms” that will be organized during the 2009 SFN's 39th annual meeting, the world's largest neurosciences forum, scheduled for Oct. 17-21 in Chicago.
List of SFN’09 minisymposia.

The 39^th annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience will take place in Chicago on October 17-21st 2009.

The 41st Meeting of the European Brain and Behavior Society (EBBS) that will take place in September 13-18th 2009 in Rhodes, Greece.
Carmen Sandi, the MemStick coordinator, will co-organize with Andreas Meyer-Lindenberg during this Meeting the "Evolutionary neurobiology of social hierarchies: Studies in humans, monkeys and rodents" Symposium.

MEMSTICK consortium has been invited to join the Symposium on "Pathological mechanisms of memory loss in Alzheimer disease, psychiatric disorders and normal ageing" that will take place on March 10, 2009, in Prague as part of the 9th International Conference AD/PD.

The FENS 2008 Satellite Symposium, organised by the Memstick coordinator Carmen Sandi, will probably be the most important Neuronal Cell Adhesion Molecules event of the Year! This Satellite meeting will shed new light on the mechanisms underlying neuronal cell-cell adhesion molecules. It focuses on the molecular and cellular events regulating these processes and their implications for human diseases and brain repair.
