Topic: "Single-cell omics in the study of neurodegenerative disorders"
Registration through this link (external link). The deadline if you'd like to join the lunch is September 15 at 11.00.
Place: The auditorium in Armauer Hansens Hus
When: September 17, 2025, at 11:30 - 13:00 (lunch 11:30 - 12:00).
Abstract: Despite years of active research, the molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative diseases are still poorly understood. This gap in mechanistic insights limits the nomination of potential therapeutic targets, leaving patients with few treatment options. Recent advances in single-cell technologies provide powerful tools to uncover cell–type–specific alterations and molecular pathways, offering novel perspectives on disease biology and opportunities for therapeutic discovery and disease stratification.
NEUROSYSM920
Neuro-SysMed's seminar series is open to all and is, in addition, part of a 3 ECTS course in Neuro-SysMed's Research School, with subject code NEUROSYSM920.
The objectives of the seminars at the Neuro-SysMed Research School for Translational Neuroscience are to provide knowledge into the research field of the disciplines involved in Neuro-SysMed, and the treatment strategies for patients with MS, PD, ALS, and dementia.
The course entails monthly participation in the seminar series, a two-day symposium, and the submission of two written reports. Students are also required to present their own research or a self-chosen scientific topic at the symposium. Read more about the course code on the student webpages.
