The FUN Undergraduate Research Poster Session   Every fall at the Society for Neuroscience meeting, the Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience sponsors a poster session and social that showcases top undergraduate neuroscientists from around the country.  At the 2008 meeting we had over one hundred posters!  So submit an abstract and join faculty and students at this exciting night of undergraduate research.

2009 FUN Undergraduate Research Poster Session & Social
Monday, October 19, 2009 from 6:45 to 8:45pm in Room N227, McCormick Place

• The 2009 Abstracts are attached below
  

Abstract Submission: Due No later than October 1, 2009 (on a space available basis)

Abstracts for posters to be presented at the 2009 FUN Undergraduate Poster Session should be submitted as soon as possible but absolutely no later than October 1, 2009. Each poster must be sponsored by a dues-paying individual FUN member or organizational FUN member designee and should represent research conducted by undergraduate scientists. Due to space limitations and the increasing popularity of this event, poster space will be assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis and each dues-paying individual or organizational member may sponsor only one poster board. If desired, more than one "poster-style" presentation may be displayed at each poster board. As in the past, posters must be presented by students who will be attending the SfN meeting. Abstracts accepted for presentation at the SfN poster sessions, as well as those not submitted for presentation as part of the larger SfN program, are welcome and encouraged for presentation at this session.

Application procedure: To apply for poster space, undergraduate students must send:

• An abstract of their work as a pdf file
• A short letter of support from a sponsoring FUN faculty member or organizational member representative.
• Please send these items by e-mail to the Poster Session Chair, Bruce Johnson (brj1@cornell.edu) and put "FUN Poster Abstract Submission" in the subject line of your e-mail.

Please consider also nominating your student for the German Graduate Schools of Neuroscience Poster Award
