Neuroscience 2009
Running from 17th - 21st October 2009, Neuroscience 2009 was the largest conference of the year for Neuroscientists. It was hosted by the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) at the McCormick Place convention centre in Chicago, Illinois. Aside from the brilliant talks from such leaders in the field as Richard Morris and Eric Kandel, the week hosted 15,000 posters across nine sessions. There were also special lectures, exhibitions and a whole series of symposia, minisymposia and even nanosymposia!
