NeuroBioUK is an annual one-day event for the neuronal and glial cell biology community in the UK. We want to build a platform where we get to hear about the latest work with an emphasis on early career speakers (PhD, Post-doc and Junior PIs) selected from submitted abstracts, and networking between scientists with a common interest.

The format of the meeting mirrors other successful one-day meetings, e.g. London Membrane Traffic Meeting, Bristol Actin Meeting and the Edinburgh Microtubule Meeting. Similarly, to these go-to events in the UK we would like our meeting to be 1) focussed, 2) cheap to attend and 3) take up minimal time.

The topic is any cell biological aspect of neuronal and glial function, the direction decided by the labs that participate. We aim to keep registration costs low (< £30), including lunch and coffee breaks.

From the beginning we've built feedback into how the meeting is run so it can be something the whole community looks forward to. Please get in touch if you have any ideas for future meetings.

Inaugural meeting: Friday, September 13th in York. 

Registration opens: 1st of June, 2024

Abstract submission deadline to be considered for a talk: 2nd of August, 2024

Registration deadline: 4th of September, 2024

The one day NeuroBioUK meeting is organised by Alex Fellows (LMB, Cambridge), Alison Twelvetrees (University of Sheffield) and Ines Hahn (University of York). Feel free to contact us with any questions or feedback about the meeting. To stay up to date with meeting plans you can join the email list.
