How to attend SfN 2018 for less

17th Apr 2018

We are delighted to announce that BNA members can register for an ISM* slot to present a poster abstract and receive substantially reduced registration rates for the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) Meeting 2018 in San Diego (3-7 November 2018), under the same conditions as regular SfN members.

BNA members have access to this benefit thanks to the fact that, as a BNA member, you also become a member of the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS).  Eligibility for ISM slots is a unique FENS member benefit, one of the many advantages brought via membership of FENS.

How to obtain an ISM slot and attend SfN for less

If you aren't a member of the BNA, then first you need to join the BNA!

If you are a BNA member and haven't already got your FENS ID, you need to activate your FENS membership; follow the instructions here. 

FENS members should then register via the ISM application form to apply for a slot.

Those selected will receive an individual slot number with additional information on how to register and submit the abstract.

Please note:

• Activating FENS membership for new BNA members is manual (not automated) process; please allow plenty of time for office staff to process your application. (We will always do our best to meet deadlines, but cannot guarantee to work nights!)
• There is a limited number of ISM slots, and they will be given out on a first come, first served basis. 
• Abstract submission closes on Thursday 3 May 2018 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.

Once you have obtained a slot number, follow the full instructions on how to submit an abstract and register for SfN Neuroscience 2018 at SfN Member Rates.
