We are delighted to be using for the first time The Adelphi, Liverpool, a unique and historic venue that now offers spacious conference facilities in addition to its other grand rooms and restaurants. And Liverpool is a fascinating city, fast emerging as one of the UK’s most stylish, cultured and vibrant conference venues in the UK. So why not come and enjoy some wonderful science in a truly magnificent city and see for yourself what’s been going on behind the cranes and the hoardings these past few years.

[Fwd: HBM 2009 Call For Abstracts Reminder]
by Gary Green 12 Dec '08

12 Dec '08

The Abstract Submission site is now open for the 15th Annual Meeting of the Organization for Human Brain Mapping to be held in San Francisco, CA, June 18-22, 2009. Please note that the deadline is *January 11th, 2009 at 11:59 PM CST USA*. Please click here <http://www.llmsi.com/index.php?cid=1411910&forward=2670> to submit an abstract. Though you are not required to register for the meeting prior to submitting an abstract, the presenter of the abstract must register for the meeting. To take advantage of the lowest registration fee, register online at www.humanbrainmapping.org/sanfrancisco <http://www.llmsi.com/index.php?cid=1411910&forward=2543>_2009_ by March, 15, 2009. Watch for an email announcing the opening of the registration site in January. The Program Committee (PC) of the Organization for Human Brain Mapping's goal is to keep rejection of abstracts low because it wishes to be inclusive. The policy for HBM 2009 will be to reject abstracts that are unethical, incomplete, or contain no data. Statements such as "results will be presented" are not acceptable. The PC also wants the number of posters to be at a level that will provide a positive viewing experience for the attendees. When submitting abstracts for HBM 2009, please consider whether multiple abstracts are truly necessary or if the data you are presenting could be accomplished via submission of one abstract. Thank you for assisting us in increasing the quality of the OHBM Annual Meeting. We look forward to welcoming you to HBM 2009. You can count on the traditional OHBM combination of exciting scientific programs and social events. Do plan to give yourself a little extra time to experience the city of San Francisco. This city by the sea is a bustling metropolis made famous by its most popular landmark, the Golden Gate Bridge. You won't be disappointed. The city has something for everyone. There is an excellent mix of art galleries, attractions, museums, quaint neighborhoods, unique shops, and many ethnic restaurants. For more information, please visit the conference website at www.humanbrainmapping.org/sanfrancisco <http://www.llmsi.com/index.php?cid=1411910&forward=2543>_2009_. The website will continually be updated as more information becomes available. If you have any questions, please contact us at info(a)humanbrainmapping.org <mailto:info@humanbrainmapping.org>. If you encounter issues with paying the abstract submission fee online or other technical glitches, please contact tech support at help(a)spltrak.com <mailto:help@spltrak.com>.
