Welcome
The Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society (MCCS) is an international organization intended to facilitate interchanges among laboratories in the field of Molecular and Cellular Cognition. The other two key goals of the Society are to promote the study of the molecular and cellular basis of cognitive function, and to educate the general public on key findings in the field, including their limitations and implications for health and society.
New Leadership for the Molecular and Cellular Cogniton Society The MCCS Council appointed three new Officers for the leadership of MCCS. Cristina Alberini (NYU) was appointed President, Eric Klann (NYU) Treasurer and Isabelle Mansuy (University/ETH Zurich) Secretary. Scott Small (Columbia) and Satoshi Kida (Japan) are newly appointed members of the MCCS Council.

Stress has a major impact on cognition and on neuropsychiatric disorders related to disturbed cognitive functions, such as depression, posttraumatic stress disorder and Alzheimer's disease. This conference will gather together international leaders in behavioral, cellular, molecular and imaging studies of stress and cognition in animals, healthy humans and clinical populations. Full Registration Grants are available-deadline January 27th, 2012. Limited places (120) Register now.
