The European Bioalpine Convention program
included special sessions about different aspects of neuroscience,
the scientific and medical community addressing topics such
as:
– Neuro imaging
Keywords : NMR, PET, contrast agents, molecular imaging
and neuropharmacology
– Value of -omics in neuroscience
Keywords : genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics,
pharmacogenomics and biochips
– Ageing and dementia
Keywords : cognition, neurodegeneration, movement disorders
and dementia
– New breakthroughs to therapies
Keywords : stem cells, gene therapy, brain stimulation and
neurorepair
38 participants were presenting a poster at the congress
after the selection by the Scientific
Committee.
We offered 4 prizes (1 500€) to posters judged to
be the best in terms of scientific content and presentation.
Criteria for selection : quality and industrial related
applications.
