[Neuropostdocs] Fwd: Publicity for 2013 Neuroethology GRS

[Sam Beshers]

Dear Graduate Students and Postdocs,

*The Gordon Research Seminar*(*GRS*) on *Neuroethology: Behavior, 
Evolution & Neurobiology *will be held on the 17 and 18^th August 2013 
at Mount Snow Resort, VT, U.S.A. Submit your abstract for poster or oral 
presentation consideration as part of the program. Registration and 
Abstract submission accepted until April 17th 2013 (oral presentation) 
and July 20th (poster). Graduate students and postdocs are also strongly 
encouraged to register for the associated Gordon Research Conference.

The Gordon Research Seminar in Neuroethology is aimed at fostering 
interactions between graduate students and post-docs who have undertaken 
the study of the neural basis of vertebrate and invertebrate behavior. 
The 2013 Neuroethology GRS will focus on the interfaces among sensory, 
integrative and motor areas and how they form a closed behavioral loop. 
The young scientists (graduate students and postdocs) attending this 
conference will present and share findings on the functional basis of 
neural circuits, from molecular to behavioral scales and across many 
specialties (for example, molecular, imaging, and electrophysiology).

Please visit http://tinyurl.com/neuroethology, for details and 
registration instructions. The posters for the seminar description and 
the preliminary program are attached to this email. These can also be 
found as links at: http://tinyurl.com/neuroethology
