WELCOME

FENS Forum is the main European neuroscience meeting, covering disciplines from molecular techniques to clinical studies and from bench to bedside. A dense programme of plenary lectures, special event lectures and symposia as well as a series of parallel oral sessions and poster sessions has become the popular standard of the FENS Forum. Since its establishment in 1998, the biennial event has become increasingly attractive for neuroscientists all over the world. Its attendance has steadily grown with an expected size of more than 6000 attendees and 150 exhibitors in 2010.

The Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS) has chosen Amsterdam for its 7th FENS Forum in 2010 and the Dutch Neurofederation to host the meeting. Amsterdam has excellent meeting facilities in its RAI Convention Centre and its central location in Europe ensures easy transport making it attractive for researchers and clinicians to participate. FENS now proudly presents an appealing scientific programme of the Forum in 2010. We call upon neuroscientists all over the world for the submission of abstracts to contribute to and to ensure a lively, and easy and fruitful scientific atmosphere as experienced in the past FENS Forums.

A visit to Amsterdam will also be a memorable experience in a remarkable 17th century city centre and a lively international cultural and artistic atmosphere.

We hope to see you in Amsterdam,
