We are pleased to announce the Cold Spring Harbor Asia conference on Assembly, Plasticity, Dysfunction and Repair of Neural Circuits which will be held at the Suzhou Dushu Lake Conference Center in Suzhou, China. The conference will begin at 7:00pm on the evening of Monday October 17th, and will conclude after lunch on Friday October 21st, 2011.

This conference retains the essence of the prestigious Cold Spring Harbor NY meetings series, a program now in its 76th year. The conference will include eight oral sessions and one poster session covering the latest findings in neural circuits. The invited keynotes and session speakers will be presenting cutting edge discoveries in the area of circuit development and circuit function.

We encourage participants from around the world to apply for this meeting and will select a small number of short presentations to be included in our sessions. Social events throughout the conference provide ample opportunity for informal interactions.

Fellowship:
We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. A certain number of presentations by graduate students and postdocs in this conference will be selected as fellowship (USD $100-$500) awards.

Major Topics:
- Neurogenesis
- Axon guidance
- Synapse formation
- Dendrite morphogenesis
- Developmental plasticity
- Circuit function
- Axon regeneration
- Developmental and degenerative disorders
