Satellite symposium 1
Canadian Physiological Society CAN/ACN satellite symposium
Recent advances in neurophysiology
This half-day symposium will highlight recent work by Canadian neurophysiologists, including emerging technologies and applications in models of behavior and electrical signaling.

Short description:
Building on the success of two previous satellite meetings on Neural Stem Cells (NSCs), the objective of this virtual satellite meeting is to strengthen further the Canadian stem cell community by connecting researchers, exchanging the ideas and establishing new collaborative projects. The speakers representing multiple institutions across Canada and all career stages will discuss recent advances in the field of stem cell biology. The satellite will cover topics spanning from the molecular mechanisms underlying NSCs maintenance and lineage specification (session 1) to the function of new neurons in animal behavior (session 2). The role of NSCs in different pathological conditions will be also addressed (session 2).
