Alheimer Symposium in Kuopio

The 9th Kuopio Alzheimer Symposium was held in Kuopio during this week together with 3rd Nordic Memory Clinic Conference. Although I was not able to attent this time, our group was present there (Janne and Soumeya). One thing that is really missing from Kuopio is good venues for scientific events and a real congress hotel. However, our "Music Center" serves the best possible venue for event as big as this was.

This reminds me that we are also organizing a Scandinavian Blood-brain Barrier Network (SBBN) symposium together with our Doctoral Programmes in Drug Research (DPDR) and Molecular Medicine (DPMM) on Thursday and Friday 19-20.1.2023, at the University of Eastern Finland at the Kuopio campus. The program is still very preliminary and I just got the websites up and running, so more information follows every week. Stay tuned and be there! 😍 The event is much smaller than this week's AD, but the topics and speakers will be superior: we will focus on "Brain Drug Delivery Methods &symposium Models to Study Brain Diseases" and the emphasis will be on the transporters, delivery of peptides, and how what is their relation in neurological diseases.
