The Second International Conference on Learning and Memory (LEARNMEM2023)

摘要 学习和记忆是理解大脑功能和功能障碍的关键。尽管已经 在这一领域取得的巨大进步，对纵向一体化的重视不够， 接近。因此，在将研究结果转化为神经系统疾病的治疗方面几乎没有取得进展。 紊乱这就是第一届学习与记忆国际会议的动机。 （2018年），这是一个巨大的成功。我们将举办2023国际 学习和记忆会议（LEARNMEM 2023），将在海滨海滩度假村举行， 2023年4月26日至30日，加利福尼亚州亨廷顿海滩，庆祝加州大学欧文分校中心成立40周年， 学习和记忆的神经生物学（CNLM）会议将由杰出的 神经科学家以及职业生涯中期和早期的后起之秀，多样化和平衡的研讨会，简短的谈话， 海报会议，小组讨论，研讨会和早期阶段的专业发展机会 investigators.我们还被选中主办美国脑蜂2023，这将被纳入 会议是我们主要的社区参与活动之一。预计出席人数为1200 - 1500人， 会议对所有人开放。在会议的各个方面，我们特别强调 性别、种族、资历、原籍国和 分析.我们的目标是（1）为科学家，临床医生，非营利组织， 企业和社区成员分享和讨论关于学习和记忆的前沿研究， 通过邀请的全体会议和小组讨论，以及提交的专题讨论会，简短的会谈， （2）培养下一代学习和记忆神经科学的领导者， 为早期职业研究人员提供众多的网络和专业发展机会， 重点关注神经科学背景不足的科学家;（3）通过以下方式传播知识： 出版会议记录，让贡献者参与特别的在线研究主题，撰写 共识文件和共同撰写的评论，以及视频记录所有讲座，研讨会，和简短的 （4）通过向非政府组织开放会议， 科学家，并鼓励他们出席，以及举办特别活动，以促进参与 科学家和社区成员之间的交流，从学生到退休人员。支持下 从这个R13开始，我们将能够为经过竞争选拔的早期职业科学家提供多达20个旅行奖励 他们来自历史上代表性不足的群体，并表现出杰出的职业潜力， 神经科学LEARNMEM 2023将通过加快团队的步伐对该领域产生实质性影响 科学和提供一个独特的机会，培养下一代领导人在神经科学。

ABSTRACT Learning and memory are key to understanding brain function and dysfunction. While there have been extraordinary advances in this area, insufficient emphasis has been placed on vertical integration across approaches. As a result, little progress has been made in translating findings to the treatment of neurological disorders. This was the motivation behind the 1st International Conference on Learning and Memory (LEARNMEM2018) five years ago, which was a tremendous success. We will hold the 2023 International Conference on Learning and Memory (LEARNMEM2023), which will be held at the Waterfront Beach Resort in Huntington Beach, CA on April 26-30, 2023, in celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the UC Irvine Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory (CNLM). The conference will feature plenary talks by distinguished neuroscientists as well as midcareer and early career rising stars, diverse and balanced symposia, short talks, poster sessions, panel discussions, workshops, and professional development opportunities for early-stage investigators. We have also been selected to host the USA Brain Bee 2023, which will be integrated into the conference as one of our key community engagement events. Anticipated attendance is 1200-1500 and the conference is open to everyone. In every facet of the conference, we place special emphasis on multidimensional diversity of contributions across gender, race, seniority, country of origin, and level of analysis. Our aims are to (1) Identify knowledge gaps and opportunities for scientists, clinicians, nonprofits, businesses, and community members to share and discuss cutting-edge research on learning and memory in a fully integrative fashion through invited plenary talks and panels, as well as submitted symposia, short talks, and posters; (2) Train the next generation of leaders in the neuroscience of learning and memory by providing numerous networking and professional development opportunities for early career researchers, with a special focus on scientists from backgrounds underrepresented in neuroscience; (3) Disseminate knowledge by publishing the proceedings of the conference, engaging contributors in a special online research topic, writing consensus papers and co-authored reviews, as well as video-recording all lectures, symposia, and short presentations for widespread dissemination; and (4) Engage the community by opening the conference to non- scientists and encouraging their attendance, as well as hosting special events to facilitate engagement between scientists and community members across all levels from schoolchildren to retirees. With support from this R13 we will be able to provide up to 20 travel awards to competitively selected early career scientists who are from historically underrepresented groups and demonstrate outstanding potential for a career in neuroscience. LEARNMEM2023 will have substantial impact on the field by accelerating the pace of team science and providing a unique opportunity to train the next generation of leaders in neuroscience.
