Hi Neuroscience Day Attendees,

Everything looks to be ready for Neuroscience Day, Monday, May 10th!

I’ve attached several things to this last email announcement.

1. A detailed map of the UC Medical Campus/Academic Health Center (PDF). Relevant buildings are highlighted in yellow.

2. A Google map of the UC Environs (PDF) with the routes from 75 and 71 to the Eden Parking garage highlighted in pink.

3. The program (PDF), for your information. You will receive the official paper program when you arrive and register. Registration will beheld in the CARE/Crawley Building.

4. Dr. Sinha recommended a recent paper (PDF) and commentary as appropriate to the talk.

For attendees from Wright State, Miami and Dayton, please use the Eden parking garage (see detailed map). We will have parking passes for you to use when you exit the garage. Carpool if you can.

For attendees from UC, please park as you normally do when visiting or working at the East Campus Academic Health Center. If you need a parking pass for the Eden garage, please let us know, we should have some extras.

Regards,

-Jim Eliassen
President, Ohio Miami Valley Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience
