The Cajal Club is an organization of neuroscientists. The Club now meets every year at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. The goals of the Cajal Club are to 1) revere Cajal, 2) provide an opportunity for neuroscientists with special interests in the structure and function of the nervous system to confraternize, and 3) contribute to the welfare of neuroanatomy and neuroanatomists.

Major Meeting - The Cajal Club held a very successful International Meeting, entitled "Camillo Golgi and Modern Neuroscience". The meeting took place at the Department of Experimental Medicine, Section of General Pathology “Camillo Golgi”, Palazzo Botta, University of Pavia, Italy, from September 29 – October 1, 2009.
The symposium featured several talks on Golgi's great discoveries of the Golgi method and the Golgi apparatus. In addition the Krieg Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Nobel Prize Laureate Rita Levi-Montalcini by our former President, Larry Swanson.
Special thanks go to Marina Bentivoglio, Paolo Mazzarello, Gordon Shepherd and Edward Jones. Please see the Pavia 2009 link for pictures from the meeting in Pavia.
