NeuroXChange: Undergraduate Neuroscience Conference

Dear University of Toronto (St. George),

McMaster University will be hosting our seventh annual NeuroXChange Conference on April 28th, 2017 and we would like to invite you to join us. NeuroXChange is a unique neuroscience and mental health conference open to undergraduate students across Ontario. This conference is designed to bring together future neuroscientists to network, learn, and present their research to fellow peers. Students are encouraged to present their research or to register as attendees. Registration is officially OPEN at http://www.neuroxchange.info/.

Students presenting their research will have the opportunity to win cash prizes as well as a chance to be published in the McMaster Undergraduate Health Sciences Journal, the Meducator. The conference will include a panel of graduate students, professors, and mental health professionals who will provide insight into their careers in research. This year, we have the pleasure of welcoming two keynote speakers: Dr. Paul Frankland who studies remote memory and adult neurogenesis at SickKids, as well as Dr. Paul Andrews whose evolutionary psychology research lab at McMaster University looks at the evolution of depression.

Please find attached this year’s poster, as well as the abstract book from last year’s conference to gain a better understanding of the NeuroXChange Conference. We also kindly ask that you please forward this email to anyone who may be interested in attending or presenting at the conference.

 

Please feel free to email us at neuroxchange@gmail.com with any further inquiries and check out our website at http://www.neuroxchange.info. We look forward to seeing you at the conference!

Sincerely,

NeuroXChange Planning Committeefile-page1
