”The Plastic Brain – Changes in Brain, Cognition and Behaviour”August 22-24, 2018Clarion Sign Hotel, Stockholm, SwedenOn behalf of the Swedish Neuropsychological Society and the local organizing committee, I am glad to invite you to the beautiful city of Stockholm in the summer of 2018. The 13th Nordic Meeting in Neuropsychology will be held at Hotel Clarion Sign in central Stockholm, August 22-24.

Our main topic, “The Plastic Brain – Changes in Brain, Cognition and Behaviour – from basic neuroscience to clinical applications within pediatric and adult neuropsychology”, will offer broad insights into the development and plasticity of the brain.

Our aim is to bring together researchers and clinicians in child and adult neuropsychology for fruitful interaction. There will be three days of keynote lectures, symposia, oral sessions and poster presentations. There will also be social events in evenings catching the unique atmosphere of Stockholm.

See You in Stockholm!
