Molluscan Neuroscience Homepage

** New Resource: Wayne Sossin's Guide to Aplysia Genomics.  Links are here, pdf of the powerpoint is here.**

Welcome to the Molluscan Neuroscience Gateway. This site is designed to help enhance the community of neuroscientists currently working on molluscan species. Registration is free and open to all scholars in the field, including students, post-docs, technicians, and faculty members. Once registered you will be able to:

  • Post job advertisements
  • Submit your recent publications for discussion by the community
  • Submit events
  • Collaboratively work on resources archiving important techniques and methods
  • Post your profile, including reseach interest and publications
  • Subscribe to a periodic newsletter that includes recent news from the Molluscan Neuroscience Community.

 Join the GastropodNet e-mail list to get announcements about Gastropod neuroscience.

This website is the result of a conference on Gastropod Neuroscience held in June 2007 at Friday Harbor Labs, which was supported in part by a grant from NSF.
