First plenary Hailan Hu and an absolute tour de force account of her work on ketamine, depression and social hierarchy

This plenary is sponsored by @ISN_society. Don’t forget that members of isn brings a whole lot of benefits including access to many funding support schemes, and discounted rates for open access @JNeurochem. And if you are a member of APSN, membership to ISN is FREE!!

While we wait for the official opening ceremony of APSN-FAONS-HKSN 2026, here are some photos taken of and from Cheung Kung Hai Conference Centre. What a fantastic place for a meeting! #APSN2026

A long-standing question in neuroscience is why the eCB system uses two ligands for the same receptors and how their release differs. To address it, we’re happy to share a pair of selective GRAB sensors that detect 2-AG and AEA, respectively, in real time.

Now happening! @yulonglilab is going to tell us about some exciting new tools for in-vivo visualisation of brain function 🔬. The special lecture at APSN-FAONS-HKNS 2026: maybe you’ll see something to take your research to the next level!
Dr Jee Hyun Kim retweeted
Next, @woongsun53 tells us how organoids can be used to model neurodevelopment and associated disorders

Afternoon symposia, and we’re at the session on developmental brain disorders. First is @JQIpLab, looking at biomarkers, intervention and mechanism of CDKL5 Deficiency Disorder.

Who went on the shining star last night? Such an amazing way to see Hong Kong 😍🤩
Whatever you did, hopefully you got a good nights sleep, because we have another packed program for you today at APSN-FAONS-HKNS 2026!!

Starting strong, we are honoured to hear a plenary lecture from Professor Tadashi Isa. Through an overview of his impressive research program in non-human-primates, he will tell us what sort of unique benefits research with this model can bring. APSN-FAONS-HKNS 2026

Thanks to everyone who came along to the AGM! Here is the group shot. Looking forward to seeing you all in Dohar!

For the afternoon symposia, we are going to learn about molecular mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases. The first speaker in this session is Kensuke Ikenaka, who uses a reverse-translational approach to study Parkinsons Disease. Very cool work at APSN-FAONS-HKNS 2026
Dr Jee Hyun Kim retweeted
There have been many excellent sessions at APSN-FAONS-HKNS 2026, but a standout has to be the Young Investigator Colloquia. We had a record number of applications this year, so we’ve really heard from the best of the best of our rising stars. Here are the 5 from session 1 🤩

APSN-FAONS-HKNS 2026 is about to begin! We’re excited to see you all there 🧠

So what does academic progression look like? What are your duties at each stage? lots of these are not laid out; there is very little training about how to develop at each level.
Dr Jee Hyun Kim retweeted
Remember to make use of international societies like @IBROorg @FENSorg and @apsnetwork, to collaborate, and search for support schemes help your career
Dr Jee Hyun Kim retweeted
And rounding up is @About_Memory, talking about environmental models, specifically early life adversity. Using this model, she studies the interaction of early life trauma and sex in the emergence of mental health disorders
Come join us! It'll be catered :) @APSN_society apsn-faons-hksn-2026.org
The ALBA Network is expanding to Hong Kong for APSN-FAONS-HKSN 2026 🧠✨ If you are planning on attending, join our ALBA-IBRO Special Session where we are hosting an essential discussion on equity and regional growth.
As neuroscience becomes increasingly global how do modern researchers navigate multiple cultural, national and professional identities? While international mobility opens vital pathways for training and scientific exchange, it also raises critical questions for the Asia-Pacific region: How do we foster a sense of belonging, ensure fair recognition and representation for Asia-Pacific scientists, and improve access as researchers transition between vastly different institutional systems?
We have gathered an incredible lineup of scientific leaders to discuss these issues—Prof. Jee Hyun Kim (AU), Dr. Mohammed Shaker (QA) and Dr. Jacque Ip (HK). Hear about their unique career trajectories, capacity building in Asia-Pacific region, and how we can drive a more diverse and globally competitive research environment. Don't miss these actionable insights!
🌐 Title: Scientific Mobility and Identity in Neuroscience Careers
📍 Location: Cheung Kung Hai Conference Centre, University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
📆 Date: 23 August 2026
⏰ Time: 14:30-16:00 (HKT)
Full programme here: alba.network/FAONS2026-event
The event is organised by the ALBA Network and supported by IBRO.
