Welcome to S4SN 2026

It is our great pleasure to announce that the 2026 Annual Meeting of the Society for Social Neuroscience (S4SN) will take place August 23-26, 2026, in Montreal, Canada, at the Centre Mont-Royal, in the heart of the city’s downtown.

S4SN brings together researchers working across human and non-human animal models to investigate the neural and biological foundations of social cognition and behavior. The 2026 meeting will continue this interdisciplinary tradition through engaging talks, discussions, and opportunities for connection.

Hosted just steps from Mount Royal and surrounded by Montreal’s vibrant summer culture, S4SN 2026 promises inspiring science, lively exchange, and an unforgettable conference experience—both inside and outside the lecture hall.
