类固醇激素是中枢神经系统使用的细胞间和细胞内通信网络的关键调节剂。这些激素虽然结构简单，但能够以多种方式影响几乎所有神经功能：从发育过程中神经元及其连接的编程、组织和维护，成年期神经元的活动和功能，到衰老和神经病理过程中神经元的死亡。为了促进对类固醇激素对各种生理和行为事件（包括发育、生殖和能量稳态）影响感兴趣的美国和南美神经内分泌学家之间的科学互动，第一届美国-南美神经内分泌学研讨会于 2011 年 8 月 7 日至 10 日在智利比尼亚德尔马举行。该地点以其自然美景及其在神经科学领域的历史重要性而闻名 [1]，并为这一重要交流提供了有趣的背景。在小型和非正式的环境中，这次会议使用从分子到行为的广泛模型系统、策略和技术，促进了年轻和成熟研究人员之间的新想法和互动的深入讨论。它还为 16 名经过竞争选出的年轻研究人员提供了一个独特的机会，以口头或海报展示的形式展示他们的研究成果，并与该领域的知名研究人员讨论他们的发现。这
Steroid hormones are key modulators of the inter-and intra-cellular communications network used by the central nervous system. These hormones, although simple in structure, have the capacity to influence virtually all neural functions in a myriad of ways: from the programming, organization and maintenance of neurons and their connections during development, the activity and function of neurons in adulthood, to the death of neurons during aging and neuropathology. To stimulate scientific interactions between US and South American neuroendocrinologists interested in steroid hormone influences on a variety of physiological and behavioral events, including development, reproduction and energy homeostasis, the First US-South American Workshop in Neuroendocrinology was held in Viña del Mar, Chile from August 7–10, 2011. The site is known for its natural beauty and its historic importance in neuroscience [1] and provided an interesting backdrop for this important interchange. In a small and informal setting, this meeting fostered in-depth discussion of new ideas and interactions between young and established investigators using a wide array of model systems, strategies and technologies, from molecular to behavioral. It also provided a unique opportunity for 16 competitively chosen young investigators to present their research in oral or poster presentations and discuss their findings with established investigators in the field.
