SFN is coming!

Well, it's not coming *here*, but the Society for Neuroscience has their annual meeting next week in Washington DC!  The last SFN that I attended was in DC, but boy, that was before I got mired in dissertation work. I enjoyed the experience, but the ridiculous number of attendees (35000!) inspires a sense of agoraphobia for me.

I was so young!

This year, with work and everything, I'll stay home and give my Human Growth and Development students an exam. Woohoo!

And, thanks to the joy of bloggers, I can catch the major headlines from the SFN interactive crew. 

I'll be subscribing to a couple of these bloggers in my sidebar, and I say a couple because I was never really sure which division my research falls under. One one hand we have Homeostatic and Neuroendocrine Systems, blogged by Dormivigilia, and on another hand we have Cognition and Behavior, blogged by Future Dr. Science Lady. For good measure, we will include Scicurious (also found at Scientific American), which I like because of the name, blogging Disorders of the Nervous system.

I'm pretty excited to read some Neuroblogger posts and get some sense of what is happening at SFN this year!
