Salk Neuroscience Symposium
Date: Monday, May 4, 2026
Location: Conrad T. Prebys Auditorium, Salk Institute, La Jolla
Registration deadline: April 20, 2026
The Salk Neuroscience Symposium will explore how measurement, modeling, and mechanistic investigations advance our understanding of neural systems—from cellular and developmental processes to circuit dynamics and behavior—using quantitative tools across experimental and theoretical landscapes.
Speakers

What the brain vascular connectome does and does not inform us about neurovascular and flow dynamics - Eve Marder, Brandeis University
Cryptic changes to degenerate neurons and circuits elicited by environmental perturbations - Markus Meister, Caltech
Rapid learning and life-long memory of a complex task
