BAMM! Returns 

The Bay Area Memory Meeting (BAMM!) is pleased to return, hosted this year at the UC Davis Center for Mind and Brain. We warmly invite faculty, postdoctoral students, graduate and undergraduate students, and researchers to join us in reconnecting, sharing new findings, and fostering collaboration across the memory research community.

*NOTE: The event location has changed from the UC Davis Center for Mind and Brain to the UC Davis Conference Center. 

The Bay Area Memory Meeting (BAMM!) is an annual scientific conference uniting researchers studying memory and cognitive control across the greater San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. Participating institutions include Stanford, UCSF, UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz, SJSU, USF, Martinez VA, and collaborators from Southern California such as UC Santa Barbara and UCLA.

BAMM! fosters collaboration, facilitates the exchange of ideas, and strengthens connections among laboratories conducting cutting-edge research in memory and cognitive neuroscience. It also provides an informal, supportive forum for trainees - including graduate students and postdoctoral fellows - to present their research and receive feedback from a broad scientific audience.

The host institution rotates annually, and presentations cover a wide range of topics related to the psychological and neural mechanisms underlying memory, learning, and cognitive control.

Through scientific exchange, mentorship, and community-building, BAMM! supports and advances the vibrant memory research community within the Bay Area and beyond.
