It's SfN 2016 - how time flies



They've had record breaking temperatures in San Diego by all accounts, but now I've arrived it's about to "break" to a comfortable 80 degrees C - at least for a few days. All will be missed in the bowels of the poster arena (Hall B) in the convention centre. Actually, it can get pretty chilly down there with industrial air con hard at work, which is why it is advisable to seek out some "hot air" emanating from a poster presentation from time to time.

SfN can be daunting if you're new to it, unwieldy and pretty much the worst place to learn the basics. It's great for networking, getting things off your chest and exploring areas not core to your particular interest.

Keep it quite, but last year disappointed a little. Reviewing this year's sessions gives me hope.

This year there is a helpful curated itinerary on Brain and Spinal Cord Injury, but I'm sure there's stuff worth seeing beyond that.

We can be found at Booth Number 3924. If you're here, come by.
