Abstracts

We encourage all participants to present a paper at the meeting. The abstracts of the conference will be subject to review and published in the Proceedings of the International Australasian Winter Conference on Brain Research. Please make your abstracts as complete as possible, including a full description of the experimental results, while adhering to the word limit. Abstracts should contain a statement of the problem, brief methods, clear results, and a statement of the conclusions or significance of the findings. Unacceptable abstracts will be returned to the authors, who will be asked to submit a revised abstract. Note: Only one abstract is permitted per presenter.

Please prepare your abstract using the template file attached here, and remember to answer the questions at the end of the file! These help us to ensure we assign your work to the correct theme

NOTE: Please disregard any information on the University of Otago AWCBR website as this is currently being decommissioned and a new website will be created soon.
