Reactions from SfN 2018
Description

2 November 2018: Heading to San Diego

The 48th annual Society for Neuroscience (SfN) meeting kicks off Saturday morning in San Diego, California.

For five days, the city will play host to thousands of neuroscientists presenting some 14,000 abstracts. From lectures and symposia to posters and satellite socials, it may be virtually impossible to attend everything that interests you at this mammoth conference.

Spectrum is here to help. Our reporters will be on site, covering the most notable autism research findings in real time. I will also update this blog every day with attendees’ reactions from the conference floor.

Our SfN news coverage is available here. Get a roundup of the day’s news by subscribing to our newsletter, or follow Spectrum on social media to receive breaking news updates. You can find us on Facebook and Twitter.

For those attending the conference, we invite you to join us at two special events.

Help us celebrate a decade of Spectrum at our 10-year anniversary party. Learn how we choose which stories we cover and how you can write for Spectrum. Join the news team for food and drinks at the Omni Hotel San Diego in Gallery 2 at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, 4 November. Please RSVP here.

We also invite you to participate in a live Twitter chat about the autism research presented at the conference at noon on Monday, 5 November. Meet us online or in person in the Omni Hotel San Diego lobby. We will be tweeting questions and moderating the chat using the handle @Spectrum and the hashtag #SFNChat.

We look forward to seeing you there.
