Under the motto “Hands-on research,” an exciting program of lectures, lab tours, and interactive stations awaited them.

In the lecture series “News from Research and Therapy,” we reported on current advances: How can new antibody therapies slow down Alzheimer's disease? What role does brain stimulation play in stroke patients? And what happens when genetic changes cause epilepsy?

During the lab tours, guests were able to experience what modern brain research looks like today – from microscopy and imaging techniques to robotics. Among other things, they saw robotic exoskeletons for stroke rehabilitation, gained insights into epilepsy and Parkinson's research, and learned about new methods for stimulating the brain with micro and nanotechnologies.

Here are some impressions:
