Dear all,

We are delighted to announce the UCL SenSyT (Sensory Systems, Technologies and Therapies) Symposium 2017 will take place on the 26th June 2017 at the Institute of Ophthalmology, London. The symposium is free to attend and lunch will be provided.

The event will celebrate the research of eminent scientists in the field of sensory systems research and showcase graduate research achievements, with the aim of encouraging interdisciplinary thinking and collaborations on this topic. The key note speaker is Prof Maria Fitzgerald, and there will be further talks by Prof Andrew Forge and Prof Mike Cheetham.

We welcome abstracts for posters and/or 10-minute talks from any related topic from students and post-docs. This year's symposium broadly covers Vision, Hearing and Central Nervous System. There will be a prize for Best Talk at £400, a prize for Best Poster at £250, and runner-up poster will receive £150. We will cover the costs of poster printing for the first 10 posters received.

To register, please submit an abstract of up to 250 words with your registration here: https://www.sensytsymposium.co.uk.
Attendance-only delegates are also welcome, however due to limited space we will prioritize presenters, so please register your interest in advance.
