OUT OF THE BOX RESEARCH ON NEURODEGENERATION

Despite decades of mainstream research, we still don’t have a cure for AD and other dementias. This informal meeting intends to foster and promote “out of the box” science discussions in this field. The first workshop of this series focuses on non-canonical functions of factors involved in neurodegeneration.

Main Topics of interest:

Protein aggregation and misfolding in the cell
Non canonical Tau functions
αSynuclein in the Enteric Nervous System
Aβ conformational antibodies
new mechanistic and therapeutic approaches
