About this Event
The objective of 6th satellite meeting on Neural Stem Cells (NSCs) is to bring together Canadian experts and trainees working in the fields of NSC, neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders, as well as brain tumors to exchange ideas and discuss recent data. The speakers from multiple institutions across Canada and all career stages will discuss recent advances in the field of stem cell biology and how their dysfunction is linked to distinct pathological conditions. The speakers will cover topics spanning from the use of model organisms to study NSC function (session 1), mammalian NSCs biology (session 2) and NSCs dysfunction and their therapeutic potential in various brain disorders (session 3). We hope that this meeting will further catalyze the interactions between Canadian neural stem cell researchers and provide a great platform to exchange ideas and develop novel collaborative projects.
