The fruit fly Drosophila is an incredibly useful model organism for studying neurodegenerative disease due to its short lifespan and wide array of genetic tools.
Our sessions will feature world-leading researchers in the field, as well as early-career researchers, sharing their latest findings in neurodegeneration.
Speaker 1: Leeanne McGurk, School of Life Sciences, University of Dundee, Dundee, UK
Speaker 2: Mamta Rai, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis, Tennessee, USA

In an effort to keep conversations going after the talks, we have set up a Slack workspace for Neurodegeneration in Flies. Please join in to post and respond to follow-up questions for speakers, job adverts, requests for advice or collaboration, and general conversation about the joys of working with flies!
