Learning and memory: mechanisms, functional correlates, control and extinction 2013

On March 4th and 5th in cooperation with the SFB 874 "Integration and Representation of Sensory Processes" (speaker Denise Manahan-Vaughan) and the DFG Research Unit 1581 "Extinction Learning" (speaker Onur Güntürkün), the fourth IGSN conference took place in the Congress Centre of the Ruhr University

Once again we were able to present an impressive list of guests.

Split into six workgroups, eleven experts presented their latest findings to the students, who in turn had the possibility to converse with the guest speakers in brainstorming sessions.

About 100 students and guests attended the lectures, which provided a fascinating and interesting insight into the current state of research in this area of neuroscience.

Junior scientists from the IGSN did an excellent job of hosting the event and themselves held small talks for each of the six parts of the conference.

We would like to thank all participants for once again helping to make this conference such a stimulating and interesting occasion.
