About the Program
International Society Member (ISM) slots, provided by Society for Neuroscience (SfN), offer international opportunities for scientists who are not members of SfN to submit abstracts to Neuroscience 2024, SfN’s annual meeting, and register at the SfN member rate. The overall aim of the program is to provide benefits to those with limited resources to join the meeting and encourage increased participation among under-resourced countries.
IBRO collaborates with its respective regional committees and global partners, such as the IBRO Latin America Regional Committee (IBRO-LARC) and FALAN for slots in Latin America and the Caribbean, the IBRO Asia Pacific Regional Committee (IBRO-APRC) and FAONS for slots in Asia-Pacific, and the IBRO Africa Regional Committee (IBRO-ARC) and SONA for slots in Africa, to raise awareness of and distribute this opportunity effectively.
Please note there are a limited number of codes available, which will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
