My first #inrc2024 has been great so far with @LabLevitt See the pics for some highlights so far: my poster and opioid mechs in breathing session! 🧠🫁🐁🐟

[INRCworld @INRCmeeting]

Another great @INRCmeeting in the books #inrc2024.
Thanks @EmilyJutkiewicz for the lovely time at @UMichiganNews and the smooth organization.
Thanks to all speakers and poster presenters for sharing their science.
Looking forward to getting together again in Bologna, Italy.

[breathingforlifeoxford16 @breathingoxford]

We are very excited about our meeting! We have participants from various countries and a great program!
Don't miss the chance to participate! Go to https://t.co/VYR4gIcMsn and register!

Hot off the press from Team Bird Brain @isubiology! 🐣🐤🧠🔬We describe chloride's role in the pH sensitivity and plasticity of brainstem breathing rhythms @devpsybio 🐤🐣🧠https://t.co/BgLH7XLSvl

[breathingforlifeoxford16 @breathingoxford]

ATTENTION!!!
The cost of the meeting will rise on July 1.
The chances of incorporating your work in the program will become less feasible because the programming committee will make most of its decisions during July 1-8.

[breathingforlifeoxford16 @breathingoxford]

The deadline for submitting your abstract is getting closer! But why should you submit an abstract at all? Good question. We put together a list of five reasons why you definitely should not miss this opportunity.
