LEARNING
& MEMORY

We
are pleased to offer the seventh Cold Spring Harbor meeting on
Learning and Memory to provide a forum for the
exchange of information, techniques and discoveries in this rapidly
growing and critically important field. The meeting will begin
at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, April 20 and run through lunch on Sunday,
April 24, 2005. As in previous meetings, we look forward to a
broad-based meeting concerned with the biological substrates of
learning and memory at all levels from molecular biology to behavior
and computation.

Abstracts
should contain only new and unpublished material and
must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Selection
of material for oral and poster presentation will be made by the
organizers and individual session chairs. Status (talk/poster)
of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions
have been made by the organizers.
We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since
they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. We have applied
for funds from government and industry to partially support graduate
students and postdocs. Apply in writing to meetings@cshl.edu
stating need for financial support - preference is given to those
submitting abstracts.
We look forward to seeing you at Cold Spring Harbor in April.
