Last APSN-FAONS-HKSN 2026 post for today - APSN council all geared up for the meeting! See you all tomorrow!

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

Congratulations to APSN President-elect Jee Hyun Kim and Council members Han Kyoung Choe, Kensuke Ikenaka, Meghana Tare, and Mitchell Lai. Thank you to everyone who participated in the APSN election. We look forward to welcoming the new representatives at APSN-FAONS-HKSN 2026.

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

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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

[Yulong Li Lab @yulonglilab]

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!

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

Next, @woongsun53 tells us how organoids can be used to model neurodevelopment and associated disorders

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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!!

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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

[Dr Jee Hyun Kim @About_Memory]

@APSN_society Thank you so much for attending our general meeting <3 #APSN2026 will be in #DOHA

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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 🤩

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

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

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

@About_Memory @woongsun53 @JQIpLab 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.

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

@About_Memory @woongsun53 @JQIpLab Remember to make use of international societies like @IBROorg @FENSorg and @apsnetwork, to collaborate, and search for support schemes help your career

[Asian-Pacific Society for Neurochemistry @APSN_society]

@woongsun53 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
