Other Collaboration Opportunities
We are sponsoring the following gatherings to enhance opportunities to collaborate on PD research efforts.
November 26-27, 2024
Mary Ward House, London
Join us as we commemorate 20 years of PTEN-induced kinase 1’s (PINK1) significance in Parkinson’s disease (PD) research. Disruption of mitochondrial quality control pathways has emerged as a central mechanism of PD and is exploited by pharmaceutical companies for novel therapeutics. Discover new insights into PINK1, Parkin, and mitophagy components, as we shed light on neurobiology and immunology. Delve into translational aspects, from cellular models to clinical trials, and connect with experts across academia and industry.
