RBWH/UQ Neurology research meetings

10 December 2020 8:00am9:00am
The Department of Neurology at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital and researchers of the UQCCR Clinical Neuroscience research theme meet weekly to discuss active projects, facilitate interactions between basic scientists and clinicians and identify new opportunities for collaboration. The meeting rotates between three theme areas – stroke and epilepsy, MND, and cognitive neurology/ neurodegeneration – and the speakers are a mix of internal researchers, collaborators from other parts of UQ and external ‘keynote’ researchers. Neuroscience researchers from across UQ are invited to be a part of this group.
