University of British Columbia at SfN 2026

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

University of British Columbia brings 10 presentations to SfN 2026 in Washington. Its SfN 2026 program centres on tools for recording and modulating neural activity, brain and nervous system disorders, and neural development. One thread examines how the inflammatory bowel disease microbiome worsens Alzheimer’s pathology in mice.
