Talks and Seminars in Bonn

Den wissenschaftlichen Vortrag zum Thema „Wie Tau Proteine in Alzheimer und verwandten Krankheiten zelltoxisch werden“ wird Dr. Susanne Wegmann halten. Sie ist Biophysikerin und Forschungsgruppenleiterin an DZNE-Standort Berlin und erforscht die Rolle des Tau-Proteins, das bei Alzheimer und anderen Tauopathien eine Schlüsselrolle spielt, sowie die physikalisch-chemischen Mechanismen, die im Krankheitsfall zur Nervenzellschädigung führen. Nach dem Vortrag bringen Aylen Pritchin (Violine) und Diana Ketler (Klavier) Werke von R. Schumann, C. Schumann und J. Brahms zu Gehör.

Neuroscience Seminar Series talk Prof. Dr. Daniel Durstewitz Dept. of Theoretical Neuroscience, Central Institute of Mental Health Mannheim & Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing, Heidelberg University ‘Inferring generative dynamical systems models from multimodal, multiscale, and multi-animal neuroscientific data’

Prospects: The Heisenberg Programme The Heisenberg Programme is DFG’s funding opportunity for researchers eligible for a university professorship. In our upcoming Prospects info session, we will explore the funding programme’s goals, eligibility requirements and selection criteria. We will introduce DFG’s profile as a funding organisation and the proposal’s journey from submission to a funding decision. We look forward to answering your questions during the session and welcome researches from all disciplines as well as research managers interested in learning more about the programme.
