Where the memory-decoding community gathers
Receptions, panels, and award ceremonies — typically around the Society for Neuroscience meeting each November.
Next meetup
Memory Decoding Meetup — Aspirational Neuroscience
Researchers interested in EM / expansion-microscopy connectomics, engram tagging, and the molecular basis of memory — together with computational and theoretical neuroscientists — will debate how long-term memories are neurophysiologically encoded.
- Monday, November 16 · 7–10 p.m.
- Marriott Marquis — Shaw/LeDroit Rooms
The evening
- A short award ceremony honoring exciting recent experiments
- A moderated panel on recent progress in decoding a non-trivial memory from a connectome
- A social to close the night, with catered snacks and drinks
Panel
Confirmed panelists so far — more to be announced:
Further panelists to be announced soon.
Please RSVP — it helps a lot with setup!
