It will be held at the Durham Research Center. Dr. Gendelman will give the keynote address at 7:30 p.m. on June 26.

Said Dr. Gendelman, “The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke T32 Workshop is focused on unique opportunities for networking, learning, and community building. The keynote address highlights our own research advances on ‘the Neuroimmunity of Alzheimer’s Disease.’

“The meeting will build discussions, research collaboration, opportunities and achievements amongst national leaders. It is the first time that the National Institutes of Health-National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke has recognized our medical center with this distinction.”

T32 grants through the NIH help institutions recruit pre- and post-doctoral students in certain shortage areas.
