ABOUT THIS EVENT

 * 7 hours
 * Mobile eTicket

Interested in how we can turn your own cells into a model brain to study
neurological disorders? Want to hear from Ontario’s top forensic pathologist on
his studies of a rare neurological disease in sub-Saharan Africa? Curious about
hearing from an internationally-renowned neurologist and neuropathologist on his
perspective of novel concepts of diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson's,
and another expert on the progress of finding a cure for both? Or simply
interested in free breakfast and lunch, and simultaneously learning how what you
eat can be linked to Alzheimer’s through your gut bacteria?

The Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology Student Union at the University of
Toronto proudly presents the 12th installment of our annual conference series
"Why Brain Matter Matters: Navigating Neurodegeneration."

Join us this January as we take a deep dive into the innovative research
conducted by renowned researchers on neurodegenerative diseases. This conference
will shed light on the pathological and cellular underpinnings of disease
etiology, and the progress from transitioning treatments from the bench to the
bedside. Our aim is to inform and inspire our attendees by showcasing the most
recent developments in this field and their potential to revolutionize our
comprehension of these debilitating illnesses.

We will be featuring our keynote speaker Dr. Gabor Kovacs, an
internationally-renowned expert on the neuropathology of neurodegenerative
diseases. We will also be featuring the research of our 6 general speakers: Dr.
Michael Pollanen, Dr. Carmela Tartaglia, Dr. Karun Singh, Dr. Martin Ingelsson,
Dr. Olga Rojas, and Dr. Jeehye Park.

The conference is FREE to attend and will take place at the University of
Toronto's St. George Campus and is open for anybody to attend. Coffee/tea and
lunch will be served with no additional cost. Attendees will also have the
opportunity to win several raffle prizes at the end of the conference!
Registration begins at 8:30 a.m.

You MUST REGISTER on Eventbrite in order to attend the event!
