Inspi­ra­tion for future ideas

Neuronano will participate in Neuroscience Day Thursday May 8th in an event hosted by Lund University and the Faculty of Medicine. Neuroscience day is an annual event bringing together all different disciplines of neuroscience.


It is hosted by Lund Univer­sity and the Faculty of Medicine and sponsored by the Segerfalk foun­da­tion, which Thorsten Segerfalk created in memory of his wife, Elsa. The purpose of the foun­da­tion is to help people with different neuro­log­ical diseases. The foun­da­tion has two important aims. One is to finance grants for neuro­science researchers beginning their inde­pen­dent career at Lund Univer­sity and the other is to sponsor the annual Neuro­science Day in Lund, arranged by the Faculty of Medicine.

  • Neuro­science Day is a great oppor­tu­nity for scien­tists working within the area of neuro­science and other stake­holders to come together and discuss exciting new research findings at the forefront of neuro­science, says Jonas Thelin, Researcher at Neuronano AB.

Neuro­sciences Day is known for having some of the most pres­ti­gious neuro­sci­en­tists coming to speak alongside young researchers at the beginning of their careers.
The highlight this year is the Segerfalk lecture, which will be given by Dr Andres Lozano, Chair of Neuro­surgery at the Univer­sity of Toronto and a pioneer in the use of deep brain stim­u­la­tion (DBS) to treat condi­tions such as Parkinson’s, depres­sion, and Alzheimer’s.

  • Mixing estab­lished researchers with young researchers in the beginning of their careers creates the perfect place for new ideas to be born. We all come together and learn more. It is a fantastic day for the community of neuro­science and in the long run, for people with different neuro­log­ical condi­tions.
