- Summer School – The limbic structures of the brain: From bench to bedside
Το Εργαστήριο Φυσιολογίας της Ιατρικής σχολής του Πανεπιστημίου Ιωαννίνων διοργανώνει θερινό σχολείο με θέμα «The Limbic Structures Of The Brain: From Bench To Bedside», στις 26-28 Σεπτεμβρίου στα Ιωάννινα. Στόχος του είναι να παρέχει όλες τις απαραίτητες γνώσεις και δεξιότητες για τη μεταφραστική έρευνα στο μεταιχμιακό σύστημα.
Εκπαιδευτές του σεμιναρίου είναι διακεκριμένοι νευροεπιστήμονες από την Ελλάδα και το εξωτερικό, και μεταξύ αυτών οι διεθνούς φήμης καθηγητές Menno Witter και Panagiota Poirazi. Οι διαλέξεις και τα εργαστήρια έχουν διαμορφωθεί με τέτοιο τρόπο ώστε οι συμμετέχοντες να εμβαθύνουν τις γνώσεις τους σχετικά με τις μεταιχμιακές δομές του εγκεφάλου και να εκπαιδευτούν σε in vitro και in vivo πειραματικές διαδικασίες σε μοντέλα ασθενειών. Τέλος, θα έχουν την ευκαιρία να συμμετέχουν σε διαδραστικές παρουσιάσεις περιστατικών με αντίστοιχες παθήσεις του εγκεφάλου, όπως νόσο του Alzheimer και αγχώδεις διαταραχές.
Το σχολείο απευθύνεται σε νέους επιστήμονες από όλους τους τομείς των επιστημών υγείας (ιατρική, βιολογία, ψυχολογία, νοσηλευτική, βιοχημεία, κτηνιατρική, λογοθεραπεία, φυσικοθεραπεία, εργοθεραπεία). Αιτήσεις γίνονται δεκτές από απόφοιτους των αντίστοιχων τμημάτων (μεταπτυχιακούς φοιτητές, υποψήφιους διδάκτορες, ειδικευόμενους ιατρούς) αλλά και προπτυχιακούς φοιτητές.
