A uniquely transformative meeting at the intersection of development and behavior to illuminate how developmental mechanisms shape complex behaviors.


Developmental programs within neural stem cells and their lineages program identity, connectivity, and function of individual neuron types, and we believe that understanding circuit development will reveal the organization of information flow in the nervous system that shapes behavior. Testing this hypothesis spans disciplines from developmental biology to behavioral neuroscience and requires diverse expertise, from molecular biology to imaging to mathematical modeling. Over the course of this meeting, we will address the following broad challenges:

1) How lineage-derived information shapes circuits and connectivity patterns for innate and learned behaviors
2) How endocrine and paracrine developmental signaling coordinate developmental transitions and sex differentiation events across the brain to produce juvenile and adult behaviors from the same genome
3) The development of unprecedented, evolutionarily relevant circuit engineering approaches and design of new computational modalities in living brains.... MORE<https://hhmi.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3c8034ebf5d74492b5c8ef8c9&id=e3ee2f3c08&e=7f13d17deb>

There are no registration fees and Janelia covers the cost of meals and onsite accommodations for all participants. Travel scholarships are available to those in need. We especially encourage applications from those who identify with groups that are traditionally underrepresented in science.


Janelia conferences are small, and we may not be able to accommodate all applicants. We strive for a diverse attendee pool with broad representation across labs and therefore may limit participation to one person per group. Preference is given to applicants who are active researchers in the field and can present their work as a poster or selected talk.

Application deadline: June 17, 2024 (11:59 p.m. ET)
