You play a critical role in the fight to increase research funding and promote science issues. The SfN Advocacy Network has launched to help you stay informed and take action as the U.S. Congress confronts the many issues that affect your research. As a part of the new network, you will receive periodic e-mails and newsletters to keep you updated on issues important to neuroscience. In turn, SfN will call upon you when your legislator’s vote is crucial to our advocacy strategy.
