Early Career Researchers accelerating innovation and collaboration at CURE-ND 2024 in Bonn
Co-organzied by Marlene Assfalg
After two very successful events in London (2022) and Leuven (2023), the third annual CURE-ND workshop for ECRs took place in Bonn from the 18th to the 20th of March.
Over 110 participants came together to discuss and share ideas, as an excellent opportunity to network and engage, in the joint effort to accelerate the pace of scientific advancement of the field of neurodegenerative diseases.
One of the key points of the workshop was that all participants get the chance to present their work, in the form of a scientific poster, a rapid 2-minute flash talk or a scientific presentation.
Registration for Secretase Meeting 2024 open!
