Open to Indian nationals only
Deadline for submission: 30 November 2026
Note: Non-Indian presenters and delegates require a mandatory prior approval from the Ministry of External Affairs, India, to be eligible to apply for the Indian conference visa. As this approval may need a minimum of 1 month for proceedings to complete we can no longer accept abstracts from delegates outside of India.
Indian nationals who do not require an Indian conference visa may still submit a late poster abstract on the below conference themes. The deadline for submission is 30 November 2026.
Environmental regulation of the developing social brain
Molecular regulators of neural cell fate and their implications for brain repair
New tools for exploring neurodevelopment across species
Perturbed neurodevelopmental mechanisms in brain cancers
Development and evolution of motor systems
Post-transcription regulation of brain development
Development and functions of the blood-brain and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers
Mechanisms and translational avenues of early-onset neurodevelopmental disorders
Neuronal morphogenesis and connectivity
Prizes will be awarded to the best posters presented by trainees
Notes for authors
As with previous events, a number of bursaries are provided by the ISDN: please indicate if you wish to apply when submitting your abstract. To qualify you must be a postdoctoral fellow within 5 years of completing your PhD (or equivalent) degree, or a graduate student that is registered in a graduate research degree programme.
Successfully submitted abstracts will be acknowledged by email including an abstract reference number, which should be quoted in all correspondence.
All abstracts will be reviewed by the Committee and once accepted, at least one of the authors must register for and present at the conference.
If you do not receive acknowledgement for your abstract submission or you wish to make any essential revisions to an abstract already submitted, please do not resubmit your abstract, as this may lead to duplication. Please contact us with details of any revisions or queries. Please quote your reference number if you have one.
