The 6th ICHBD

Population Neuroscience Beyond the Horizon

Dec.15-17,2023, Beijing, China

This conference focuses on the theme of “Population Neuroscience Beyond the Horizon” and invites experts and outstanding young scholars from the world to discuss the topics of “Population neuroscience: history, present and future,” “Large-scale human brain cohorts,” “Multimodal imaging methods for population neuroscience,” and “Population neuroscience: translational applications,” which will bring together the research progress and outlook of all international participants. Through this conference, we seek to deepen field cooperation and collectively construct a more ideal DPN discipline and research system.

This conference will be open to researchers and students in neuroscience, psychology, neuroimaging, biology, computer science, and physics. We sincerely hope that the success of this conference can help the development of DPN!

Call for Abstracts

The ICHBD 2023 organizing committee invites abstract submissions on human brain development, prioritizing submissions highlighting population diversity (e.g., genetic, environmental, and social factors) in developmental human neuroscience. It is imperative that all submissions contain new, previously unpublished materials.

We are particularly interested in submissions that address the topics

Abstracts should be formatted to include the following (for the English version):

  1. Title: up to 100 characters
  2. Authors and affiliations
  3. Abstract text: up to 3,000 characters (including spaces)
  4. One figure (optional), the figure may also be a graphical abstract
  5. Figure caption: up to 500 characters
  6. Keywords: up to 10 keywords
  7. Acknowledgments could be added
  8. References: up to 10 references, APA format is preferred, include DOI
  9. No supplementary information

Submissions will be evaluated on scientific integrity and relevance to the conference. Accepted abstracts will be presented as e-Posters on the website and will have the opportunity to be published in a special issue in the Chinese Science Bulletin after the conference.

Abstracts must be submitted in a Word document format.

How to submit: All submissions should be in both Chinese and English (a template is available here) and should be emailed to deepneuro@bnu.edu.cn by Sunday, 29 Oct 2023. Notification of acceptance and announcement of presenters will be in mid-November 2023.

About

From 2014 to 2021, after eight years of academic accumulation and communication at five International Conferences on Human Brain Development, the concept of Developmental Population Neuroscience (DPN) and suggestions for fostering the construction of this discipline were put forward. The DPN research will investigate the laws and mechanisms of human brain development throughout lifespan, promote the transformation and application from fundamental research to education and health, and help satisfy the country’s enormous demands in population quality and national development. The China Brain Project (Brain Science and Brain-Like Intelligence Technology) research on the brain development of children and adolescents has officially begun, and its cohort construction and completion will greatly advance the country’s occupation of the international frontier in the field of DPN.
