17th
International Conference of the Society of Neuroscientists of Africa Marrakech-Morocco April, 17-20, 2025 |
As the Chair of the Organizing Committee and President of the 17th Society of Neuroscientists of Africa (SONA) Conference in 2025, I extend a warm invitation to all neuroscientists from Africa and around the world to join us for the Joint SONA – MAN Conference 2025. This exciting event will take place at the Conferences Center of Cadi Ayyad University in Marrakech from April 17th to 20th, 2025, under the theme: "BRAIN and ENVIRONMENT: the challenge of the future." |
This international
conference will be the third one to be hosted in Morocco, after the
SONA 1995
in Marrakesh and SONA 2013 in Rabat. It could also be the last SONA
Conference
organized before the 2027 IBRO World Congress which will be held in
Africa.
Morocco has consistently garnered the attention and support of the International Brain Research Organization (IBRO) and its distinguished representatives. Over the years, we have had the honor of hosting eminent figures such as David Ottoson from Sweden, Pierre Magistretti from Switzerland, Carlos Belmonté from Spain, Marina Bentivoglio from Italy, and many others. Their presence has enriched our scientific discourse and strengthened our ties with the global neuroscience community. |
This Conference aims to be a crossroads for exchanging scientific information, ideas, and expertise between African neuroscientists and those from worldwide. The program will particularly highlight significant research covering various fields, from fundamental to clinical neurosciences, recently conducted. It will offer through plenary lectures, symposia, oral and poster presentations an opportunity for discussion, and exchange of information between clinical and fundamentalist neuroscientists on the issues and challenges of the future in understanding the mysteries of the brain. In the margin of this conference, there will be several
pre- and
post-conference satellite activities: schools and workshops. It will also be an opportunity to explore our beauty
and magic
of the imperial city (Marrakech) and southern Morocco experiencing its
gastronomic,
cultural, and tourist wealth through a social program that will be
proposed for
participants and accompanying people by a tourism operator. |
