If you will be maintaining your eligibility as a Student Member or Overseas Student Member beyond January 2022, as stipulated in the Bylaws of the Japan Neuroscience Society, please submit a certificate of enrollment or copy of your student ID verifying the required information. If you renew your membership as a Student Member or Overseas Student Member, your membership fee remains unchanged 3,000 yen (1,000 yen for Overseas Student Member) for 2022.
　Even if you will be losing your eligibility as a Student Member or Overseas Student Member during 2022, due to graduation or completion of your program, you will retain your status as a Student Member or Overseas Student Member until the end of December 2022 if you renew your membership before the date shown below. However, please be advised that to participate in the annual meeting, you will be charged the amount that corresponds to your status at the time (the Student Member fee will no longer apply).

If you cannot upload the data, you may send us the re-registration form by e-mail (student-junior@jnss.org). The subject should be: “Re-registration as a Student Member (your membership number: your name)”. The following items 1 to 4 should be described in the body and item 5 should be attached to the e-mail as a scanned data file (PDF, JPEG, GIF, or PNG format, 2MB or below).

　Junior Member and Overseas Junior Member are membership categories designed to support young researchers who have completed graduate school, and the annual membership fee is 6,000 yen (3,000 yen for Overseas Junior Member).

　In order to be a Junior Member or Overseas Junior Member, a recommendation by a Regular Member (or Overseas Regular Member) had been required in addition to an application from the individual who becomes a Student Member or Overseas Student Member. However, we have received many comments that this recommendation should not be necessary because Student Members already received recommendations at the time of joining the Society. Therefore, we have decided at the General Assembly in July 2021 that Student Members or Overseas Student Members who have not completed the procedures to renew their membership will automatically be changed to Junior Members or Overseas Junior Members.

　In response to the above, Student Members or Overseas Student Members who have not renewed their membership by December 10, 2021 will be Junior Members or Overseas Junior Members for 5 years starting in 2022. If you intend to become a Junior Member or Overseas Junior Member, no procedure is required.
If you have any questions, please contact the secretariat at membership@jnss.org

*If you are already a Junior Member or Overseas Junior Member, you do not have to take any special procedures.
