THE BRAIN DISEASES AND MOLECULAR MACHINES 2012 CONFERENCE

BLACKSWAN Foundation supports the The Brain Diseases and Molecular Machines 2012 Conference: Longevity, Development and Neurodegenerative disease

Tokyo, November 20-23, 2012

The aim of the BD&MM conferences is to foster innovation and networking in the field of translational research for human diseases. In 2012, the conference will bring together a panel of international experts to discuss frontier research in the field of Longevity, Development and Neurodegenerative disease. Recent progress in the study of development, longevity and disease indeed suggests that alterations of developmental, regenerative and longevity-promoting systems play important roles in neurodegeneration. The BD&MM 2012 conference will cover nine selected hot topics to show how research in developmental biology and aging/longevity promises to open new avenues for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. The conference will focus on major diseases as well as rare neurodegenerative disorders.
