SUMMARY:AD/PD 2026 - Advances in Science & Therapy
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to join us at the upcoming AD/PD™ 2026 International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and related neurological disorders. The groundbreaking series of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases Conferences attract international medical and scientific professionals worldwide. \nThe Conference remains at the forefront of unraveling the mechanisms and improving the treatment of Alzheimer’s\, Parkinson’s\, and other related neurodegenerative diseases. AD/PD™ Conferences uniquely combine distinct neurodegenerative diseases in one setting and examine their similarities and differences; a strong focus is mechanisms of disease\, prevention\, and therapy. \nThe AD/PD™ Conference has become the main event of the year in the field of neurodegenerative diseases\, attracting leading medical and scientific professionals from around the world. AD/PD™ is now an annual meeting\, with a continuing focus on the ADVANCES IN SCIENCE & THERAPY of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and related neurological disorders. \nThe forthcoming AD/PD™ 2026 meeting will take place as a Hybrid Conference in the wonderful city of Copenhagen\, Denmark\, and online. The continuing success of the AD/PD™ meetings is the result of several key ingredients: \n\nA high-quality scientific program covering most recent research\, developments\, and treatments\, with emphasis on overlaps and congruent results among AD\, PD\, and related neurological disorders.\nA multidisciplinary mix of participants representing both clinical investigators and basic scientists; as well as both established investigators and young upcoming talents.\nAn International Scientific Advisory Board covering a broad range of expertise in AD\, PD\, and related neurological disorders.\nA concerted attempt to provide an ambiance at the Conference that encourages interaction\, exchange of ideas\, and networking opportunities among all participants.\nJunior Faculty Awards\, intended to encourage attendance by young scientists at the Conference.\n\nAD/PD™ remains unique in its academic quality combined with an interactive and collegial environment. We believe that there is no other conference in the world that presents such a high level of science in a condensed manner on one hand\, yet on the other hand\, provides an enormously comfortable atmosphere in which to enjoy it all. We invite you to join us at the AD/PD™ 2026 International Conference on AD and PD\, and we hope to welcome you in the Spring of 2026\, in Copenhagen or online. \nRegister to Attend

SUMMARY:UCL Chemistry: 200 years of Innovation and Discovery
DESCRIPTION:Turn back the clock and encounter 200 years of chemistry at UCL\, live at the Bloomsbury Theatre. \nAs well as talks and short films\, moments from key Victorian-era experiments will be re-created using original apparatus as well as modern tools. \nUniversity College London was founded in 1826 with chemistry being chosen as one of the first subjects to be offered at England’s first new university for more than 500 years. UCL Chemistry opened its doors for teaching and research in 1828 and has been the home of an astonishing array of scientific discoveries\, minds\, collaborations\, and community. \nKey moments narrated in the event include: \n\nThe discovery of the noble gases – a whole new section of the periodic table. For this achievement Sir William Ramsay\, UCL professor of chemistry\, was awarded the Nobel prize\nThe work of Dame Kathleen Lonsdale. UCL’s first female professor lay the foundations of the field of crystallography – the study of the atomic structure of crystals.\nStudents known as the “Chōshū Five”. These five young men had left Japan in secret to learn about the customs and technology of the west. They studied analytical chemistry under Professor Alexander Williamson\, who also served as their guardian. After returning home they played a role in Japan’s modernisation.\n\nWe’ll be travelling from Victorian London to World War 2\, to the 1970s to present day\, commemorating four truly remarkable periods across centuries of scientific discovery and innovation. \nThis event celebrates those achievements and highlights the values and ideas that grew across the UCL Chemistry’s rich and dynamic history to shape the department that is celebrated today. \nAll profit from ticket sales will go towards UCL Chemistry’s Student Hardship Fund. \n\nRegister
