27 February, 2023 CANCELLATION REFUNDS END 31 MARCH
Please be advised that the registration fee is fully refundable until 31 March. After that date, all funds have been committed and no refunds can be made. You are advised to purchase travel insurance that will refund your registration fee and other costs if you have to cancel your participation after this date. It happens every year as family and health issues cause last-minute cancellations. Please purchase travel insurance.

The Scientific Program is now full. Please register with the understanding that new speaking opportunities are unlikely. You will, of course, be able to contribute to all discussions. Not speaking is also less stressful, so please join us...

We want to include early-stage investigators and all who have not previously attended the Conference. You might benefit personally and professionally from a week of informal interactions with your hippocampal colleagues. If interested, please join us.

As it is a long time to the Conference, feel free to watch this and this, and get into the right frame of mind, comestibly speaking.

Registration is now open so please download the registration form from the "Register" page. In making travel plans, please note that the conference will begin at 8:30 am on Sunday, 28 May, 2023, and the last event will end at about 6pm on Friday, 2 June. We suggest that all Sunday speakers plan to arrive in Verona on Friday, 26 May. Having a free day in Verona is not so bad...
Everyone else should plan to arrive well before the day you speak. Delays always occur for some of us. If you are delayed and miss your session, there will be no chance for you to speak given the full schedule.
We suggest that you make refundable hotel and air reservations because predicting the future in an increasingly unpredictable world is difficult...
14 June, 2022 update
We have had an unusually quick response to the news of the next meeting, presumably because we are all eager to resume a normal life. As a result, we have already reached the maximum number of longer-format sessions (see the Scientific Program page). Data Blitz slots are still available. Do not delay, as the program fills quickly...please alert any colleagues who might like to attend...everyone is welcome.
24 May, 2022
We are now starting to build the scientific program. Please let us know via the "Contact page" if you would like to organize a session or be included in a Data Blitz (see below).
Do not delay as the program fills very quickly.

The Data Blitzes are for everyone, and anyone can attend and present data in these well-attended, fast-paced sessions. If you want to give a Data Blitz talk, please read below and send us your information via the "Contact Us" page. Do not delay as the program fills quickly.
Please note that all participants pay the registration fee and the costs of attending as this is an unsponsored, informal meeting. Pre-doctoral students are subsidized with a reduced registration fee.
The Spring Hippocampal Research Conference is designed to bring together students, fellows, researchers, and clinicians interested in all aspects of normal hippocampal formation structure and function in learning, memory, and spatial function, as well as its dysfunction in neurological and psychiatric disorders. In addition to presenting and hearing the latest data in the formal sessions and data blitzes, participants benefit from informal interactions throughout the conference, which will be held every two years in a location that facilitates friendly interactions and future collaborations.
You are invited! This is an entirely open and democratic meeting. As the conference approaches, please contact colleagues and let us know if you plan to organize a session, as the program will fill quickly.
For the formal sessions, please keep in mind the following organizational details when inviting colleagues:
Four speakers in a one hour session (10 minutes for each speaker plus 5 minutes for questions); you can chair the session without speaking if you prefer;
This is an open, informal, and friendly meeting with few rules. The primary goals are to: 1) stay strictly on time, and; 2) have the highest-quality sessions.
For the Data Blitz presentations: 5 minutes for each speaker plus 2 minutes for questions.
