DNC2019: Developing Neural Circuits Course (formerly known as Developmental Neurobiology Course)

The assembly of the functional nervous system is one of the most complex developmental processes in nature. Discovering the mechanisms involved is vital both for advancing basic scientific understanding and as a foundation for future strategies to treat neurological disease, congenital cognitive impairment and neural injury. This course aims to efficiently and rapidly introduce students to the intellectual background, model systems, experimental methods and expert investigators in this topic area and will be of tremendous value in establishing the next generation of young neurobiologists.

Developing Neural Circuits Course 2019 dates:
Arrival July 29; Course July 30 - Aug 11; Departure Aug. 12
