CBN Retreat

In May, the CBN sponsors an annual Spring Research Retreat, a full-day scientific meeting on campus. All members of the Neuroscience community are invited to attend and present posters (over 55 posters were presented in 2017). Abstracts are published in a program booklet, and anyone involved in research can present, including faculty, post-docs, residents, laboratory staff and graduate students.

Blum Lectureship

The CBN is proud to sponsor the Mariann Blum Memorial Lectureship in the Neurosciences. Dr. Mariann Blum (pictured), a beloved member of our neuroscience community, passed away prematurely in 2003 after a valiant struggle with brain cancer. “Poco” was a rising star in the field of Parkinson’s Disease research. To remember her influence on young women in neuroscience, and her impact on neurodegeneration research, the CBN established a Memorial Lectureship in her honor, featuring prominent neuroscientists with strong roles in mentoring female trainees.
