Track 15: Neurodegenerative Disease and Neurodegeneration – Understanding the Decline of Neural Systems
Neurodegenerative diseases are among the most challenging conditions in medicine, characterized by the progressive loss of neurons and neural function . Disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) not only devastate patients and families but also present an enormous global health and economic burden. At the 5th World Neuroscience, Neurology, and Brain Disorders Summit , Track 15: Neurodegenerative Disease and Neurodegeneration will explore cutting-edge research, innovative therapies, and novel diagnostic strategies aimed at combating these conditions and improving patient outcomes. Why Neurodegeneration Matters Rising prevalence due to aging populations worldwide Profound impact on cognition, motor skills, and quality of life Limited availability of disease-modifying treatments Need for early detection biomarkers and personalized medicine Urgency to understand the molecular and cell...
