Abstract:
It has been more than thirty years since the two inaugural IBNS presidents sat down at a larger neuroscience conference and decided that there should be more to behavioral neuroscience than a single theme at a meeting. The progeny of these conversations is the International Behavioral Neuroscience Society (IBNS) and this year will be its thirty year anniversary. We reflect back on the last thirty years of the research career of the society's second president, Paul R. Sanberg, as an example of how behavioral neuroscience research has changed these last few decades.
