Location: Palace of the Anatomical Institutes, C.so Massimo D’Azeglio 52, 10124, Torino, Italy
This event is under the Patronage of the SINS
The hybrid workshop will focus on:
- the most recent cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis and progression of neuromuscular diseases (as ALS, SMA…) and, more in general, of pathologies characterized by muscular atrophy
- currently available treatments and new developing therapeutic strategies
- practical activities for advanced imaging methods and in silico analysis of muscle innervation
In person attendees will have the possibility to submit an abstract for a poster presentation and to be eventually selected for an oral presentation –> the best posters/oral presentations (evaluated by the committee) will receive an award the last day! ABSTRACT SUBMISSION HAS NO ADDITIONAL COST.
For whom may be interested, a social dinner (40€) is planned on 8th November: it will be a great occasion to meet the speakers and do networking.
Practical Activity: We will discover image analysis software, to analyze the morphology and innervation of neuromuscular junctions. If necessary, materials will be provided to practice on site on the own laptop.
