SYNAPSE is a one-day regional undergraduate neuroscience conference that was inspired by NEURON in the Northeast. A very successful first SYNAPSE meeting at James Madison University in 2003 demonstrated interest and demand for the symposium. Starting in 2006 this important undergraduate neuroscience meeting will return. SYNAPSE provides opportunities for students to: present their research results and obtain feedback from neuroscientists at other institutions via poster presentations, discuss important issues in neuroscience training via workshops and panel discussions, learn about cutting-edge research via a keynote speaker, form and potentiate connections with other neuroscientists in the region
