The antecedents of the International Society for Neurochemistry are described, especially the parts played by the International Neurochemical Symposia held between 1954 and 1962; the Journal of Neurochemistry between 1956 and 1965; and by other organizations concerned with neural systems though not primarily neurochemical. Description is also given of the foundation of the Society in 1965 and of its first International Meeting in 1967.
