	6th FPR-UCLA Interdisciplinary Conference
 
A Critical Moment: Sex/Gender Research at the Intersection of Culture, Brain, & Behavior
 
October 23-24, 2015

This conference occurs at a critical juncture in sex/gender research in neuroscience, anthropology, psychology, and related disciplines. New theories are utilizing a conception of the brain as dynamic, plastic, and adaptable, and of sex/gender brain and behavioral differences as subject to the influence of a broad range of biological, cultural, and social or environmental factors.
 
 
 
In organizing this conference, our aim is to bring the neuro- and social sciences together to consider three cross-cutting questions on sex/gender: why now? what’s fixed/changing/changeable? what’s at stake?
 
 
 
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN:
