About the Chapter

The Chicago Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience (CSFN) is a local affiliate of the National Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience (www.sfn.org). The CSFN is composed of academic and industry based scientists who are interested in the field of neuroscience. This includes researchers, teachers, students and interested public. Our membership includes individuals on faculty at all of the major academic centers and many of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries in the Chicago area.

The goals of this site are two-fold: one, to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and information and ideas between Chicago-area neuroscientists; and, two, to offer an educational resource for teachers, students and the public at large. Each Spring, the Chapter sponsors an Annual Meeting designed to bring scientists, teachers, students and the public together to learn about and discuss the latest advances in Neuroscience research and education. Other upcoming seminars and Neuroscience related events in the Chicago area can be found under Announcements. Announcements of other research and educational opportunities will also be posted here.
