This meeting focused on some of the exciting advances in developmental social and affective neuroscience, with a strong emphasis on understanding how social experiences actively shape developing neural systems in children and adolescents. The broad goals of this conference were to promote a more integrative developmental science approach to understanding social and emotional development. The conference included special sessions for students, invited keynote speakers, a symposium on the neuroscience of prosocial development, and a closing panel discussion on future directions for this exciting and rapidly growing field. 

This SRCD Special Topic Meeting was conducted in close partnership with the 3rd Annual Flux Congress: Integrative Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience. Flux 3 was focused on neurocognitive development and included sessions on critical periods of brain development in humans and animal models, training the developing brain, and longitudinal studies of neurocognitive development. In addition there was also a Satellite Symposium on Educational Neuroscience that was open to attendees of the SRCD meeting and the Flux Congress meeting. Both meetings took place at the Stadsgehoorzaal Theatre in the heart of the city.
