Functional Anatomy of the Arthropod Central Complex & Motor System
May 11 - 14, 2008

This meeting follows from the twin meetings held here last spring: Neuroanatomy and Stereotypy of the Adult Drosophila Nervous System and Insect Behavior: Small Brains, Big Functions. These two meetings were well received and we are following them with this fused conference for next year.
