About event
We would like to cordially invite you to the first out of a series of eight Alzheimer´s Disease workshops (AD workshops). This event received funding from the four-year-long Excellence Hubs project ADDIT-CE (101087124) and it will be organized twice a year. After a short break, we are therefore very happy to renew the tradition of AD meetings established by Jiří Damborský several years ago.
In the current format, there will be participants from the ADDIT-CE consortium (many of them being former participants of AD meetings) from the Czech and Slovak Republics as well as other researchers working in the AD area from the same region. Please note that the event is by invitation only.
The AD workshop takes place on Friday, 2 June 2023. Thanks to Martina Hložánková, it will be organized on the grounds of BioVendor company (the full address is available below).
