Hold your horses, neuroscientists!! … app has nothing to do with the Alzheimer Precursor Protein.

We are talking about something different: app in the sense that “there is an app for that“! App(lications) are everywhere, they help us to find, to play, to discover, to book and -sometimes- to waste an unbelievable amount of time…

There is an app for everything. is that true?

Not quite! I want an app that helps me to navigate scientific conferences. A tool that helps me discover interesting scientific content among thousands of presentations, an app that can potentially help my networking  during the conference.

We couldn’t find such an app so we gathered this dream team (see picture) to create one! And we will be launching it very soon at the Society for Neuroscience Meeting (SfN12).

stay tuned!
