Organizing Committee

The American Society for Chinese Neuroscientists (ASCN) is excited to announce the 3rd ASCN Symposium, taking place in January 28-30, 2026 in Houston, Texas. ASCN is a global non-profit organization of neuroscientists from academia and industry, dedicated to advancing neuroscience research and developing therapeutic solutions for nervous system disorders.
This symposium welcomes investigators at all levels—PIs and trainees, with or without Chinese heritage—who are interested in neuroscience. We invite researchers at all career stages to submit abstracts highlighting their research across all areas of neuroscience. Selected abstracts will be considered for short talks and trainee awards. The symposium will serve as a dynamic platform to present and discuss innovative research, foster interdisciplinary collaborations, support career development and academic leadership, and provide valuable opportunities for networking. We also welcome support and participation from vendors and exhibitors interested in engaging with the neuroscience community.
