University of Tennessee, Knoxville at SfN 2026

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

University of Tennessee, Knoxville brings 11 presentations to SfN 2026 in Washington. Its presentations centre on brain circuits and behavior across stress, reproductive and maternal states, alongside memory and motor changes in disease models. One thread maps perineuronal nets across the whole brain in Rett syndrome and maternal states, revealing spatial patterns of change.
