Descripción de la actividad

In recent years, extracelullar vesicles have emerged as key mediators of cell-to-cell communication in the central nervous system. Furthermore, due to their abilitiy to cross the blood brain barrier they can reach the periphery and serve as a source of biomarkers in neurodegenerative diseases to facilitate diagnosis, prognosis and assessment of interventions targeting the brain.

The course aims to provide students, clinicians, academics and researchers with updated knowledge on extracellular vesicles in the central nervous system, review the roles of extracellular vesicles in neurodegenerative disorders as well as their translational/clinical applications and encourage interactions among researchers and clinicians and promote collaborations.

 

The course will be based on a series of foundational lectures delivered by experts in the field, ensuring academic rigor and subject-matter depth. In addition, an structured Q&A roundtable session will be incorporated to promote meaningful dialogue between teachers and students, supporting knowledge exchange, clarification of concepts, and active learner engagement.
