Aim of the symposium

The aim of this international symposium is to bring together researchers working on advanced 3D cellular models, including organoids, spheroids, assembloids and related technological approaches, to discuss their applications in neuroscience. The meeting will highlight how these models can be used to study human neurodevelopment, neurodegenerative diseases, neural circuit formation, and innovative approaches such as high-content imaging, omics and cell painting.

Registration for the symposium is free but mandatory.

Please note that the number of participants is limited to 70. Early registration is therefore strongly recommended.
