Scottish TSE Network (STN) will host their annual one-day international symposium

Neurodegeneration & The 3Rs: Models, Mechanisms & Resources.

Edinburgh, 6th December, 2016 

The Scottish TSE Network (STN) will host their annual one-day international symposium at the Roslin Institute (Edinburgh, UK) on state of the art approaches to studying neurodegenerative diseases that are consistent with the 3R principles (replacement, refinement, reduction) of animals in research.

Topics will include cell-free protein misfolding assays, human stem cell-based approaches and transgenic C. elegans and Drosophila models, in addition to the opportunities offered by tissue banking and in silico analysis.
