This proposal helps support the annual South East Nerve Net Conference (SENN). The primary goals of this conference are to: 1. Provide a venue for students to present their work to neuroscientists throughout the region. 2. Promote comparative systems neurobiology research and research on the neural basis of behavior. 3. Expand the participation of women and historically under-represented groups of people. The meeting provides an attractive venue for students to give presentations. For most students, this is the first opportunity to speak at a scientific meeting. Our aim is to preserve the friendly format for students while making this a large enough meeting to give them exposure to scientists outside of their own institutions. The format of the meeting is generally to have a local keynote speaker on Friday evening with a welcome reception. On Saturday there is a full day of short talks by students and post-docs, followed by another keynote talk. The evening is filled with posters and dinner. The formula is varied depending upon the venue. Plans for enhancements to the meeting include: academicsurvival skills workshops, public outreach programs, and mini-interviews for undergraduates. Specific efforts will be made to increase participation by under-represented groups and to highlight their research successes. Travel fellowships will be provided to students to increase the accessibility of the meeting. The meeting venue rotates between Atlanta and two sites in Florida: the Whitney Laboratory and Florida State University. The meeting is co-sponsored by the International Society for Neuroethology and local host Institutions. The Atlanta location is central to most of the South East. The Florida sites represent the historical constituency of this meeting. The South East Nerve Net aids in training students for careers in neuroscience by introducing them to researchers from across the Southeastern United States.

该提案有助于支持年度东南神经网络会议（SENN）。主要目标 这次会议是：1。为学生提供一个向神经科学家展示工作的场所 该地区。 2。在神经基础上促进比较系统神经生物学研究和研究 行为。 3。扩大妇女和历史不足的人群的参与。这 会议为学生提供了一个有吸引力的场所进行演讲。对于大多数学生来说，这是第一个 有机会在科学会议上讲话。我们的目标是为学生保留友好格式 使这一大规模会议使他们接触自己机构之外的科学家。 会议的格式通常是在星期五晚上有当地的主题演讲者，欢迎 接待。在星期六，学生和毕业后进行了一整天的简短会谈，然后是另一天 主题演讲。晚上到处都是海报和晚餐。该公式的变化取决于 场地。加强会议的计划包括：Academicsurvival技能讲习班，公共宣传 计划，以及本科生的迷你浏览。通过 代表性不足的群体，并强调他们的研究成功。旅行奖学金将提供给 学生增加会议的可访问性。会议场地在亚特兰大和两个之间旋转 佛罗里达州的地点：惠特尼实验室和佛罗里达州立大学。会议是由 国际神经义学学会和地方寄宿机构。亚特兰大地点是大多数的核心 东南。佛罗里达州代表了这次会议的历史选区。东南 神经网络有助于培训学生从事神经科学的职业，通过向研究人员介绍来自 整个美国东南部。
