European Drosophila Neurobiology Conference

External Event - 2nd to 6th Sep 2024

Neurofly 2024 is a great opportunity for researchers from across the globe to meet to discuss their latest research, principally on the neurobiology of Drosophila, but also other invertebrate models. We aim to provide a venue for wide-ranging discussions and interactions between junior and senior researchers, in an inclusive interdisciplinary environment for an open exchange of results, ideas and new concepts. 

Check out the programme and lineup of inspiring plenary speakers. A wide range of sessions will include:  Developmental and cellular neuroscience,  Brain homeostasis and metabolism,  Brain disease, injury and ageing,  Gene expression and molecular neuroscience,  Neural circuits and behaviour,  Plasticity and remodelling. 

Many talks will be selected from abstract submissions, to allow exciting, emerging research to be presented by early career and established researchers. We will host a practical demo workshop on bridging connectomics and transcriptomics. Social & networking activities include a trip to Stratford-upon-Avon (Shakespeare’s birth place) and a gala conference dinner.

Registration is now open - early bird deadline of 16 June 2024.

Lecture theatre capacity is limited; please register now to avoid disappointment: neurofly2024.org

Please forward to your team and colleagues, particularly postdocs and PhD students (PhD travel bursaries available, sponsored by the Company of Biologists).
