Seoul National University at SfN 2026

Nov 14–18, 2026 Washington, DC ~21k attendees Website

Seoul National University brings 46 presentations to SfN 2026 in Washington. Its SfN 2026 presentations centre on disease-related brain changes, dopamine and value-guided behavior, and circuits for motivation, navigation, and social understanding. One thread examines how distinct lateral hypothalamic cell groups encode motivational salience and consumption value.
