ITM2B Symposium

How can an understudied gene teach us to fight dementia? The ITM2B Symposium is a research conference exploring clinical, pathological and modelling advances in British dementia and other ITM2B related dementias.
This meeting brings together international experts to share the latest findings on disease mechanisms, biomarkers, and emerging approaches to understanding these rare but informative conditions. By focusing on ITM2B, an often overlooked gene, the symposium aims to uncover insights that may inform broader dementia research.
