Substitutions will not be accepted in lieu of the First Author Requirment nor can we accommodate any substitution requests after March 21, 2013.

Registration Confirmation and Conference Badge
Confirmation of your registration is sent via email immediately upon receipt of payment address in your membership account. Please SAVE YOUR RECEIPT and print it for your reference, information and reimbursements.
As a final confirmation and conference reminder, an eBadge will be sent to all registered attendees via email one week prior to the start of the conference including any final announcements and/or instructions for the meeting. In order to receive your eBadge, please make sure you have confirmed receipt of CNS emails and newsletters. If for any reason you have removed yourself from the email list, you will not receive your eBadge for the meeting.
eBadge emails are not necessary for admission. Official identification badges will be available for pick-up onsite at the Registration Desk. Attendees must wear the official conference badge at all times and present it for admission to all CNS 2013 meeting events. To minimize the environmental costs of reprints, we require a $5 fee for printing replacement badges onsite.
