For instance, please do not post solicitations, job postings, unrelated blog links, or other general commentary unrelated to this forum. This is a great medium through which to seek the advice of your peers, benefit from their experience, and participate in ongoing conversations about neuroscience broadly defined – scientific questi...

We recently redesigned the Neuronline website - as a result, some pages were moved or changed. Try looking in the appropriate section above, or using the search box at the upper right.

Read about creative ways scientists across the world are raising awareness of the importance of brain research, and acquire practical insight into leading an initiative at your institution or in your community.

Build connections and strengthen your skills throughout the year with SfN’s webinars and other virtual events. Registration: $0 SfN Members; $15 Non-members* *Some events may be open to the public

Revisit annual meeting event recordings and watch interviews to discover the latest insights on topics from animal research and impostor syndrome to productive collaborations and leadership in the lab.

Enhance your research techniques through virtual conferences and training series on emerging trends and technologies, and develop your own training program through curriculum and hiring best practices.

You can contribute to a large-scale effort to increase awareness about issues facing women in academia. As an SfN member, you have access to a series of Increasing Women in Neuroscience (IWiN) toolkits and related resources that are adaptable for your use at your institution or local chapter meeting. Each toolkit contains a 30-minute presentation that focuses on specific gender retention issues, such as recruitment, hiring, promotion, and evaluation. The presentations highlight critical data, real-life success stories, practical strategies for breaking the cycle, and ready-to-use tools. The toolkits were adapted from live workshops and made possible through the NSF-funded Department Chair Training to Increase Women in Neuroscience program. Explore the toolkits and related resources here.

Learn how to effectively mentor diverse students, find new mentors, navigate difficult conversations, and more.

Increase awareness of the value of community through toolkits, articles, and interviews sharing advice on how to create equal opportunities for all scientists.

Stay apprised of findings from across the field with summaries of research published in SfN journals, and learn about rigor, responsible conduct of research, and other topics important to the scientific community.
