Connectionists: EBBS Call for Symposia: Trieste, Sept 16-19, 2007

[Alessandro Treves]

     European Brain and Behaviour Society - CALL for SYMPOSIA
                              for the
    39th Annual General Meeting, Trieste, September 16-19, 2007

The EBBS meeting is open to all scientists from around the world interested
in how the brain produces behaviour, from integrative, cognitive, systems,
computational neuroscience - and beyond. Based on previous meetings, we 
expect ca. 500 participants, many of whom will be new to EBBS meetings.

The program includes 6 invited plenary speakers, 14 symposia with 4 talks 
each, and hundreds of posters presented over extended daily sessions.
SISSA, the International School for Advanced Studies of Trieste, Italy and
ICTP, the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics, will host
the meeting at their attractive campus next to the Miramar castle and it park,
8 km north of Trieste along the coast. You will reach it every morning from
hotels at the seafront downtown, by bus, by train, or by boat (or windsurf).

Symposia are selected by the program committee among those proposed by you,
whether you are an EBBS member or not, by the June 15, 2006 DEADLINE.
All 4 half-hour speakers in a symposium are waived the registration fee.
Moshe Abeles, Jocelyne Bachevalier, Barry Everitt, Pierre Maquet and Faraneh
Vargha-Khadem will give plenary lectures, and Susumu Tonegawa will give an
opening Nobel lecture on Sat evening, Sept 15. The rest depends on you.

Do contribute to the success of the meeting by taking a few easy steps:
* Insert the website http://www.sissa.it/~ale/EBBS2007/ among your browser’s

* Forbid your dear ones from getting married or falling ill on September 15-19,
