The Pacific Cascade Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience was created to support research and education among practicing neuroscientists and the public at large. We count among our members about 300 students, staff, and faculty members at the University of Washington and other local institutions in the Puget Sound area.
Our main activities are to promote learning opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students and enhance the teaching of neuroscience to precollege students and teachers. We also sponsor travel awards to support participation of students in national or international meetings.
We are part of the Society for Neuroscience based in Washington, DC.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
