Incorporated in 1961, IBRO has grown to encompass 84 member societies in 61 countries, with a current membership of over 75,000 neuroscientists. At the time of its founding, no other global associations for neuroscience existed, and IBRO came to serve an important function as a builder of bridges between researchers in different countries.</p> <p>Today, IBRO is well known for its efforts to foster neuroscience research and education. The organization's <a href="http://funding.ibro.info/Pub/Pub_Front.asp?">grants and fellowships</a> facilitate travel and relocation for young researchers, especially from less well-funded countries. The IBRO <a href="http://schools.ibro.info/Pub/Pub_Front.asp?">education programme</a> runs courses on various aspects of neuroscience all over the world, and has a particularly important role in Africa, Asia and South America. IBRO also has an official scientific publication, the biweekly journal <a href="http://www.ibro.info/Pub/Pub_Main_Display.asp?LC_Docs_ID=2492">Neuroscience</a>.</p> <p>The 50^th anniversary of IBRO will be celebrated at its <a href="http://www.ibro2011.org/site/home.asp">8^th World Congress in Florence, Italy</a>, July 14-18, where INCF will be present as an exhibitor.
