Reminder, only a few days left to register for next week’s workshop – only a few spaces left. If you are concerned with moving your research from the lab to practice, don’t miss this event.
Translational Neuroscience Workshop, beyond a concept
Thursday, November 21, 2019 – 8:30 am – 5:30 pm

Scientific discoveries are not being translated into tangible public health benefits; estimates for discover-to-application lag-times are 16 to 24 years. Workshop participants will present successful models of Translational Neuroscience, discuss strategies and challenges, and examine how translational aspects can be incorporated into research, clinical practice and public/policy outreach.
FREE - Open to university faculty, students and staff, and professionals working in related areas (international development, clinical services, etc.).
