Scholarships available for CrawFly neurophysiology workshop; new summer neurophysiology workshops announced

ADInstruments and Cornell University are once again happy to offer two scholarships for the upcoming CrawFly Neurophysioloy course to be held June 21-25 2017. All application materials must be submitted no later than 11:59 PM (EST) April 21, 2017 Please follow the links below to the CrawFly registration page for full details.

Also annoucing FlyFest and SnailFest neurophysiology workshops, registartion is now open!

FlyFest - May 12   3 day hands-on course introducing educators to modern neurogenetic techniques in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and other invertebrate models.   Register   Read more       CrawFly - June 21   5 day hands-on course that provides teachers hands-on experience with invertebrate preparations that demonstrate basic principles of nervous system physiology.   Register   Read more       SnailFest - August 11     3 day hands-on course teaching practical laboratory skills for extracellular and intracellular recording. Snail buccal and circumesophageal ganglia are established models for motor pattern generation, neuronal excitability, neuromodulation, and investigation of the ionic currents that underlie complex activity patterns. The large cell bodies make them ideal for the teaching lab. We will use two species of pond snails, Lymnaea and Helisoma.     Register   Read more
