.: Apply for an SfN slot
Society sponsored Abstract Slots for the SfN Annual Meeting 2009 - Call for Application
FENS is happy to announce that, again, for 2009 FENS was appointed as the unique distributor for slots for entire Europe.
For the past several years the
Society for Neuroscience has provided FENS with a number of unique ID numbers
(called "slots") which allowed some of the FENS members who are
not also members of SfN to submit abstracts to the SfN annual meeting and
register for the meeting at the member rate. The total number of slots that
FENS can distribute in 2009 is 419.
As in the past, FENS will
distribute these slots on a first come - first served basis, but also
observing geographical distribution and the size of societies.
- Application for a slot will be possible via the FENS website from April 9 through April 27, 2009.
- Only FENS members can apply for a slot. The system will automatically check your FENS membership status.
- The slot is not transmittable i.e. the slot-holder him/herself only is entitled to submit an abstract as first author.
- In order to be eligible for registration at the SfN member rate, you must submit an abstract.
- You will be required to pay a $85 abstract submission fee to SfN.
- Submission of an abstract does not automatically register you for the meeting, you must still register and pay to attend Neuroscience 2009.
Slot application opens on April 09, 2009, 0.00 a.m. CEST
The deadline for application is April 27, 2009, 12.00 p.m. CEST
Please note that in the past you may have been able to register at the member rate without submitting an abstract; however, under the recent policy in order to be eligible for registration at the SfN member rate, you must submit an abstract.
Abstract submission opens April 23, 2009, 0.00 a.m. EDT
Abstract submission closes May 14, 2009, 5.00 p.m. EDT
