 Welcome 
          Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the International Neuroendocrine Federation (INF), the Société de Neuroendocrinologie (SNE), the University of Rouen and the Région Haute-Normandie, we would like to invite you to Rouen to participate in the Seventh International Congress of Neuroendocrinology (ICN2010), which will be held on 11-15 July, 2010. The venue of ICN2010 will be the Law Faculty, a beautiful new building located in downtown Rouen, on the bank of the Seine River, within walking distance from the Place du Vieux-Marché (where Joan of Arc was burnt alive in 1431) and the famous Cathedral, painted by Claude Monet. Gareth Leng will Chair the Program Organizing Committee and we can therefore be guaranteed of a stellar program that will encompass all facets of contemporary neuroendocrinology in both the basic and clinical arenas. The scientific program will comprise a Lay-public Lecture, 9 selected timely Plenary Lectures, 16 Symposia with 64 State-of-the-Art Lectures, 28 free oral communications and several hundred posters. The social events, included in the registration fee of all participants and accompanying persons, will comprise a get-together party on Sunday July 11, a cheese-and-wine party during one of the poster sessions, a concert at the Cathedral, a half-day excursion in Normandy, a banquet in Saint-Ouen Abbey, spectacular light shows at the Cathedral and Fine Art Museum (Les Nuits Impressionnistes) every evening, the festival "Rouen, the city of Impressionism", and a firework display on the Seine River on July 14. Travel awards for young investigators (graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) will be available and special consideration will be given to individuals from economically underdeveloped regions of the world. Five satellite meetings will be held before or after the ICN2010. We very much hope that you will be able to join us for this major international neuroendocrine forum in Rouen in 2010. You will be able to learn about the most recent advances in neuroendocrinology and related disciplines, to meet old friends and colleagues, and to initiate new relationships with others working in fields similar to your own. In the meantime, if there is anything that we can do to help you attend the Congress, please do not hesitate to contact us directly at hubert.vaudry@univ-rouen.fr or plant1@pitt.edu.

          With best wishes
