In 2019, the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) celebrates its 50th anniversary, and a variety of special activities are being planned to recognize this milestone during the annual meeting and the months to come in 2020. -
The Society for Neuroscience is recognized as a respected organization through which neuroscientists can share their research with the field. Through SfN's annual meeting and scientific journals, JNeurosci and eNeuro, the Society provides high-quality, global venues that promote great science and allow neuroscientists to come together to advance the field. -
Serving more than 37,000 neuroscientists around the globe, SfN offers programs to strengthen the neuroscience community all year. Alongside SfN-created programming, the Society partners with a variety of organizations to extend the size and scope of training and professional development opportunities available to its global membership. -
The roughly 86 billion neurons comprising the brain encased in our heads is complexity come to life. Intricate communications between neurons fuel all our thoughts, actions, memories, and emotions. For seven years, BrainFacts.org has been reliably telling the story of how our brains compel us to explore and understand our world, all the while gaining a public audience and private support. -
Now in its third year of strategic opportunity investment, SfN’s commitment to expanded advocacy continued to see increased return via new legislative accomplishments, a growing cadre of passionate advocates, and stronger relationships with policymakers. -
Through FY 2019, SfN has remained committed to serving as a financial steward to support the pillars of the mission: providing exceptional programming, service, scientific training opportunities, professional development, and avenues and resources for public outreach to neuroscientists worldwide.
