Organizer's other eventsThe webinar series “Fresco Research Symposia” is an educational initiative promoted by the Fresco Parkinson Institute Italia Onlus Foundation in collaboration with NYU Langone Health and Fondazione Policlinico Gemelli.
The aim of the Fresco Research Symposia is to foster high-level scientific and clinical discussion on topics of major relevance in the field of neuroscience and neurodegenerative diseases. By bringing together an international community of clinicians and researchers with diverse and complementary expertise, this initiative seeks to encourage interdisciplinary dialogue, promote collaboration, and further strengthen the Fresco scientific network.
Each session features two international speakers who address the same topic from complementary perspectives, ranging from biological mechanisms to clinical implications and therapeutic approaches. The webinar format includes two 20-minute presentations followed by a 20-minute discussion, with the goal of encouraging an engaging and interactive exchange of ideas.
