The International Behavioural and Neural Genetics Society (IBANGS) is a learned society that was founded in 1996.[1] The goal of IBANGS is "promote and facilitate the growth of research in the field of neural behavioral genetics".[2]

Profile

Mission

The IBANGS mission statement is to promote the field of neurobehavioural genetics by:

Awards

Each year IBANGS recognizes top scientists in the field of neurobehavioral genetics with:[8] [9]

A Distinguished Service Award for exceptional contributions to the field is given on a more irregular basis and has been awarded only three times, to Benson Ginsburg (2001), Wim Crusio (2011), and John C. Crabbe (2015).[8]

History

IBANGS was founded in 1996 as the European Behavioural and Neural Genetics Society, with Hans-Peter Lipp as its founding president. The name and scope of EBANGS were changed to "International" at the first meeting of the society in Orléans, France in 1997.[13] IBANGS is a founding member of the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies.

The current president is Karla Kaun (2022–2025).[14] Previous presidents have been:[15]
