GWIN and CNMC-CNR jointly sponsor a frequent seminar series devoted to bringing investigators with a broad range of interests in neuroscience to the GW/CNMC campus for 1hour seminar presentations, as well as one-on-one interactions with GW/CNMC faculty, fellows and students.
The seminars are held on Thursdays at 4PM throughout the Fall and Spring Semesters, and the location alternates between GWUMC/Ross Hall and CNMC.
The 2011 seminar series will begin on September 29, 2011. This year's speakers include:
