The Fame Lab was thrilled to attend this Symposium with co-organized by Ryann @ScienceDame and Kalanit Grill Spector @kalatwt about the New Frontiers of Developmental Neuroscience! What fantastic speakers and new ideas!
Our 13th Annual Stanford Neurosciences Symposium has begun! Our topic: Building the Brain. We’re exploring how our brains wire themselves up from a few cells into the three pounds of matter in our skulls that makes us who we are.

In his closing remarks, Institute director Kang Shen summarizes what we’ve learned: about the interplay of innate developmental programs and experience, the challenges producing and parsing developmental data, and the value of artificial models to study brain development.
