Call for Papers
Abstracts are invited by 26 February 2010 for oral and poster presentations at the conference. Topics will include a balance of human development and animal model/molecular work including genetics as follows:
- Evolution and human cerebral cortical development
- Mechanisms of neurodevelopmental disorders from epilepsy to autism and schizophrenia
- Molecular targets and pathways in neurodevelopmental disorders
- Neural patterning and cell fate
- Neurogenetics and epigenetic mechanisms
- Neurogenetics and neuroimaging of neurodevelopmental disorders across the lifespan
- Stem cells and neural repair
ISDN 2010 is organised by the International Society for Developmental Neuroscience. Conference administration is provided by Elsevier, publisher of International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience.
