SUMMARY:Milner Seminar: Focus on Neurodegeneration
DESCRIPTION:An in-person seminar at the Milner Therapeutics Institute in Cambridge\, with two talks on neurodegeneration from disease mechanisms through to new treatments\, followed by an hour of networking. \nThe Milner Seminar series brings together speakers from academia and industry.

It’s held in person to encourage informal discussion\, so it’s a good chance to meet people working across the Cambridge neurodegeneration and drug discovery community. \nWhen\nWednesday 18th November – 16:00 to 18:00 \nWhere\nLecture Theatre\, Jeffrey Cheah Biomedical Centre\, Puddicombe Way\, Cambridge CB2 0AW \nProgramme\n\n16:00 – Dr Maura Malpetti (Department of Clinical Neurosciences\, University of Cambridge): fingerprinting brain and peripheral inflammation in neurodegeneration\, from discovery to trials\n16:30 – John Skidmore (ALBORADA Drug Discovery Institute\, University of Cambridge): building bridges between academia and industry to develop treatments for neurodegenerative diseases\n17:00 – Networking and refreshments\n18:00 – Close\n\nRelated reading\nFor more on the themes of the talks\, read about the role of inflammation in Alzheimer’s disease\, or hear Fiona Ducotterd on a career in dementia drug discovery. \nOrganiser\nOrganised by the Milner Therapeutics Institute\, University of Cambridge.
