Meeting - Suzhou, China
Glia including astrocytes, oligodendrocytes and microglia are traditionally considered as the passive supporting cells of nerve tissue. However, emerging evidence has indicated that glia play a variety of active roles in the development and functioning of nervous system including synapse formation, synaptic efficacy modulation, neural inflammation and tissue repair among others. The 2015 Cold Spring Harbor Asia Conference on the Glia: Novel Insights about Their Functions and Dysfunctions, will attempt to reflect the rapid development of the field by bringing together an outstanding and diverse group of basic and translational scientists who are at the cutting edge of glial research to discuss the latest and most significant progress in the field. The emphasis of this conference will be on the development, function and regeneration of glia under normal and pathophysiological conditions, with a highlight of basic cellular and molecular mechanisms.
