SUMMARY:ITM2B Symposium
DESCRIPTION: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. \nThis 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. \nDate and Location\n10 July 2026Kennedy Lecture Theatre\, ICH GOSH\, London\, UK \nThis is a hybrid event\, with options to attend in person or online. \nAttendance\n\nFree to attend\nOpen to all career stages and backgrounds\n\nSpeakers\n\nRuben Vidal\, Indiana University School of Medicine\, USA\nLuciano D’Adamio\, Rutgers Brain Health Institute\, USA\nSimon Mead\, UCL\, UK\nTamas Revesz\, UCL\, UK\nKo Woon Kim\, National University Hospital\, Jeonju\, South Korea\nJuliette Wohlschlegel\, University of Washington\, USA\n\nRegistration\nRegister by 10 June 2026 \nFor further information contact: c.arber@ucl.ac.uk \n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Synergy for Science 2026
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, scientific endeavours have traditionally been compartmentalized into disciplines\, where like-minded researchers converge to address specific problems from a shared perspective. This approach has undeniably facilitated focused research\, hastened the pace of discoveries and contributed to the major breakthroughs of the last century. However\, an unintended consequence of this specialization has been the development of specialized languages and a sense of belonging within these disciplinary communities\, ultimately fostering impermeable knowledge silos across the entire scientific landscape.  \nWhile the establishment of disciplinary boundaries has played a crucial role in shaping our modern society\, there is now a recognized imperative to transcend these boundaries and confront the substantial challenges facing our globalized world. The emergence of interdisciplinary science represents a departure from the norm\, driven by courageous scientists eager to construct cultural bridges between disparate communities. Pioneers of interdisciplinary science have achieved remarkable results\, powered by their unique perspectives. However\, while the intersection at the heart of interdisciplinary science is inherently dynamic\, signifying its vitality\, the downside lies in its relatively modest scale. When extracted from their original environments\, interdisciplinary communities frequently struggle to attain the critical mass necessary for a lasting impact on our evolving society. \nSynSci26 will mark the inaugural conference set to take place in Glasgow in July 2026. With the subtitle “Meeting for a Healthier Future\,” this event aims to bring together diverse communities to collectively address the mandate of the third Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) outlined by the United Nations. By emphasizing collaboration and innovative approaches\, SynSci26 seeks to contribute meaningfully to the pursuit of a healthier\, more sustainable future. We invite scientists\, researchers\, and thought leaders from various disciplines to be part of this historic occasion\, breaking down barriers and shaping a brighter\, healthier world through interdisciplinary science. Together\, let us pave the way for future SynSci conferences that continue to make significant strides in addressing global challenges. \n\nRegister
