The Chinese University of Hong Kong at SfN 2026

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

The Chinese University of Hong Kong brings 5 presentations to SfN 2026 in Washington. Its presentations at this meeting centre on social behaviour, pain pathways and brain development and activity. One thread explores how gut microbes influence pathways from the sensorimotor cortex to the spinal cord in pain hypersensitivity.
