Biomarkers in neurodegenerative diseases - from bench to bedside

Acquisizione competenze di processo:The use of biomarkers for diagnostic and prognostic purposes in patients affected by neurodegenerative disease is challenging in clinical and research scenarios. New biofluid biomarkers enable the evaluation of neurodegeneration, glial activation, pathology processes and inflammatory pathways in the brain and could thus be used as target of newly developed disease-modifying therapies. the summer school “biomarkers in neurodegenerative diseases from bench to bedside” is an opportunity for young neurologists and neuroscientists who are interested in specializing in neurodegenerative diseases to receive in-depth instruction from internationally-recognized experts. students will attend large lectures and panel discussions with question and answer sessions and will have the opportunity to visit biological laboratories using the different techniques and discuss them with international experts.
