Register for the Meeting to Present Your Abstract
First authors are expected to register for Neuroscience 2009 and present their abstracts in a poster session or nanosymposium. If the first author cannot attend, presentation by a co-author is acceptable. If no one can present, e-mail program@sfn.org immediately to either mark your abstract as “Unable to Attend” (abstract and author block will remain listed in the online Neuroscience Meeting Planner) or “Withdrawn” (abstract and author block will be removed from the Neuroscience Meeting Planner). The print version of the program cannot be modified at this time.

Nanosymposia - New for 2009 
Taking the place of slide sessions, nanosymposium sessions are an exciting new format that allows abstract submitters to propose their own group of presenters for a slide-based presentation. Learn more about nanosymposium sessions.

New Theme H Poster Format for 2009
For those presenting a Theme H abstract (History, Teaching, Public Awareness, and Societal Impacts in Neuroscience), please note that in 2009, Theme H posters will encompass three sessions on the poster floor: Saturday p.m., Sunday a.m., and Sunday p.m. Posters should remain on display for these three sessions for casual viewing and be removed at the end of the afternoon session on Sunday.
