BACKGROUND

Neuroscience in Ghana is at its young age. Though the interest exist in Ghana, only a few individuals have associated themselves with neuroscience. This symposium being a two-day interaction and the first of its kind is being hosted by School of Pharmacy, College of Health Sciences, University of Ghana. The organising team consists of Faculty from University of Ghana, KNUST, University of Cape Coast and the University of Warwick, UK. The symposium is aimed at forming the nucleus of a neuroscience research group in Ghana and enhancing collaboration among researchers in this field. Basic and clinical neuroscience researchers and specialists, well as post graduate and undergraduate students with interest in neuroscience research would be given an opportunity to present their research findings at this symposium. It will also be an avenue for interaction between pharmaceutical companies with neuroscience interests and neuroscientists. We are therefore inviting papers under the following categories: neuropharmacology, neuro-anatomy, neurophysiology, clinical neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry etc. Prominent and renowned basic and clinical neuroscientists would be present at this gathering.
