Manitoba Neuroscience Network 7th Scientific Meeting
June 16, 2017
Dear colleagues,
Thank you for your support and participation in the 7th MNN annual meeting held at the Radisson on the 16th of June.
We have received positive reviews of the meeting and by all measures, the event was a success. All talks, including those by the keynote speakers, Drs. Jeff Lichtman and Jitender Sareen, were well received.
Many of you also enjoyed and found value in the special session “Science and Society: collaborating for change”. This was our attempt to connect neuroscientists to the community.
We would like to thank all speakers, session chairs, keynote speakers, poster presenters, volunteers, sponsors and all participants.
The MNN poster session was especially engaging and the judging was tightly competitive. Congratulations to all the poster winners.
