Med 6. in 8. septembrom 2023 se je v Trstu pod pokroviteljstvom International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB) odvijala mednarodna konferenca Arturo Falaschi na temo Funkcije in nefunkcionalnosti proteina TDP43 v nevrodegenerativnih obolenjih.

»Zlepljanje« (ali strokovno agregacija) fosforiliranega alfa-sinukleina v Lewyjeva telesca je značilna najdba pri Parkinsonovi bolezni in nekaterih drugih nevrodegenerativnih stanjih, ki jim z eno besedo pravimo sinukleinopatije.

Each year, the organizational team selects an overarching topic for Brain Awareness Week, which provides the foundation for presenting the various facets of brain functionality. So far, we have tackled topics such as love, sleep and dreaming, neurodiversity, pain, crises, relationships, and many others.
