An International Spring School: “Emerging technologies and new horizons for research and therapy of human Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDDs)”
It is our great pleasure to announce our third Spring school: “Emerging technologies and new horizons for research and therapy of human Neurodevelopmental Disorders (NDDs)” as part of the project STREAMLINE funded by the European Union. The School will be held at the Institute of Molecular Genetics and Genetic Engineering, University of Belgrade (IMGGE), Belgrade, Serbia from April 9th to April 11th 2025 and will be co-organized by IMGGE and Cardiff University, UK.
Why STREAMLINE International School: The School will offer a comprehensive guide to current state-of-the-art research of NDDs based on the application of patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), brain organoids and OMICS analysis. By face-to-face lectures, discussion sessions and practical demonstrations, the International School will guide you from the understanding of the clinical perspective of NDDs, human cell functional genomics, modelling NDDs using iPSCs and brain organoids, emerging imaging technologies to study cell architecture, dynamics and function to the translation from cell mechanism to patient biology. It will provide knowledge and understanding of current approaches and technologies to support future research and international collaboration.
Who should attend this International Streamline School: PhD students from the Western Balkan region with interest in research and therapy of NDDs.
Costs: travel (train/bus tickets), accommodation and subsistence costs will be covered by the project STREAMLINE.
Language: English
