The Brain Prize Meeting 2019 - Denmark

External Event - 25th to 27th Nov 2019

Title: SILENTLY LOSING THE BRAIN – The enigma of small vessel disease

With international keynote speakers including the 2019 prize winners, The Lundbeck Foundation Brain Prize Meeting aims to bring a broad range of researchers to discuss why small vessel disease has emerged as a major contributor to dementia worldwide.

In a mash-up of emerging clinical and experimental research and researchers this meeting will be the perfect stage for discussing how this up-and-coming field will progress from here.

We hope for participants to build an international network and relationships and to exchange knowledge and ideas.
