Clarissa’s presentation “Comparing genome-wide association results for fear conditioning in two advanced intercross mouse lines: Implications for gene identification in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in humans” will be on October 17, 2012.

Abraham made a quick trip to Paris where he gave a talk, ate some food and then flew home. It was a very nice and highly informative meeting put on by Xavier Montagutelli of the Institut Pasteur.

The Palmer lab was well represented at this meeting by Camron Bryant, Clarissa Parker, Amy Hart and Natalia Gonzales, all of whom won travel awards. Clarissa organized a symposium and gave a talk.

The talk was titled “Behavioral genetics of complex behavioral traits in mice: gene identification and mechanistic studies”

This years meeting was titled “Decoding sequenced genomes” and featured talks on behavioral genetics across a range of different organisms. Abraham served as a discussant and Natalia presented a poster and won a travel fellowship.

A recording of Dr. Palmer presenting this poster is available at the meetings website (ACNP membership required).
