About
This meeting examines how interactions among glial cells and neurons influence nervous-system development, function and disease. Genomic and functional studies address microglia, astrocytes and myelinating cells, including diversity within each class and their contributions to circuits, behaviour and neurodegeneration.
Programme themes cover neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, ageing, human glia, glia-focused technologies, and interactions with immune cells and other glia. Talks, posters and extended discussion support exchange among established researchers and trainees. Applicants need a bachelor’s degree in science or engineering, or an accepted equivalent. Admission is selective and capacity may be reached before the application deadline.
