SCAN Annual Symposium 2024: Recent Trends in Neurodegeneration
9th and 10th January 2024 | IIT Bombay
Event Details:
We are thrilled to extend a heartfelt invitation to you for the “SCAN Annual Symposium on Recent Trends in Neurodegeneration” as our centre marks its first anniversary since its inception.
Neurodegenerative diseases affect millions of people worldwide, particularly in old age individuals. They are a group of disorders characterized by the progressive degeneration and loss of function of neurons in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and, seldom, the peripheral nervous system.
This symposium opens its doors to an eager audience keen on delving into the latest research, findings, and innovations. The chosen theme, “Recent Trends in Neurodegeneration,” aptly reflects the primary goal of this gathering – The aim is to explore the ever-evolving landscape of neurodegenerative diseases, the challenges they pose, and the breakthroughs that have the potential to reshape the way we approach these conditions.
The symposium will feature interactive sessions, short talks and poster presentations providing a platform for young attendees to engage with experts, to know about the future of cutting-edge research in neurodegeneration. The purpose of the symposium is to bring together researchers, clinicians, and experts from various disciplines to share their knowledge, present cutting-edge research findings, and foster collaborations in the field of neurodegeneration. The event will revolve around the various themes like basic research, biomarkers, AI/ML, policy studies, assistive devices and diagnostics.
