Comparative and Evolutionary Neurobiology 2026

It is held at Hyatt Regency Lake Washington in Seattle, USA.

Neurobiology researchers are the identified audience.

It is worth it for neuroscientists and geneticists working on cross-species and evolutionary questions, since the program has about 30 invited talks, selected short talks and two poster sessions covering comparative genomics and developmental mechanisms, with organizers such as Detlev Arendt, Evan Eichler and Ed Lein also listed as speakers. A small, single-track forum over 3.5 days rewards researchers who want to present and discuss unpublished work; clinicians or those in applied neuroscience will get less from its basic-science focus.

Attendees at academic research conferences usually wear casual clothing, such as jeans or slacks with a shirt or sweater. A warm layer and rain jacket suit Seattle in late October, and poster presenters often dress slightly smarter.
