Call for symposium proposals

The Scientific Programme Committee (SPC) invites you to submit a proposal for a full symposium in neuropsychopharmacology, experimental and clinical neuroscience and closely related disciplines.

Your symposium proposal should include:

  • A tentative symposium title
  • A half A4 outline of the proposed topic
  • A selected category
  • Four tentative lecture titles and speakers

Proposing speakers:

  • There should preferably not be more than one speaker per country, and in any case, not more than one speaker per institute.
  • At this point there is no need to get formal approval from the proposed speakers!
  • You do not need to invite speakers and/or organise funding, as invitations and refunds for speakers and chairs are arranged by ECNP.

The selection of the proposals will take into account:

  • Whether a topic has been on the programme of the last three ECNP Congresses*
  • The expected (near) future scientific breakthroughs and/or highlights
  • The structure of the scientific programme in parallel tracks and the spread over the topics to be covered

The ECNP Office will confirm receipt of your submission by e-mail. If you have not received a confirmation within 2 weeks of submitting your proposal, please notify the ECNP Office immediately at: +31 30 253 8567.

You will be informed about the decision of the SPC by 2 July 2012. There can be no correspondence about the outcome.

The submission deadline is: 15 March 2012
