2021 CNCM/Cajal Club Conference

2021 CNCM Cajal Club Conference August 19 & 20, 2021 At The Beckman Center Irivine, CA

We held a two-day in-person conference from August 20-21, 2021 (https://cncm.som.uci.edu/conferences/) to cover the newly emerging topics of both Connectomics and Transcriptomics in the field of Neuroscience, opened by Dean Michael Stamos. Our conference “sold out” with 107 attendees over our planned limit of 100. Our attendees were over 6/7s outside of UCI from throughout the US, and included many distinguished neuroscientists. Our feedback on the meeting was uniformly highly positive.

Dear All,
This two-day in-person conference will take place at the Beckman Center in Irvine, CA. An in-person conference is not only an avenue for scientists to share their research with their peers, but also an avenue for engaged discussions and networking. Such an event offers intellectual stimulation and rewarding experiences that a virtual, online meeting can not offer.

There is a $183 registration fee required to cover the conference, food and beverage expenses. Please register early due to our capacity of hosting ~100 attendees. Conference attendees are encouraged to submit a 1-page abstract (<500 words). Please submit it along with your conference registration proof to cncm@uci.edu. The attendee abstracts submitted will be selected for short talks or poster presentations.

We will work with the Beckman staff to implement proper guidelines to ensure that this conference will be a safe and healthy event. This will involve social distancing, temperature screens, and masks inside the building. We strongly encourage all speakers and participants to obtain vaccination against the coronavirus before our conference.

Sincerely,


Xiangmin Xu, PhD
