Translational Science Summit on MND and Rare Dementias
About the event
The LifeArc Translational Science Summit on MND and Rare Dementias showcased LifeArc’s innovative work and collaborations with leading experts in neurodegeneration research.
Our event brought together professionals and researchers committed to advancing translational neurodegeneration research. Highlights included updates on the progress of our MND Translational Challenge and our work in Rare Dementias.
Across a series of engaging sessions, we explored cutting-edge approaches to therapeutic discovery, early diagnosis, digital solutions and patient impact. The summit offered participants a unique opportunity to connect with a vibrant network, learn from industry leaders, and contribute to shaping the future of neurodegenerative disease research.
About LifeArc
LifeArc is a self-funded medical research charity. We help progress promising early-stage science to the next stage of development, often with universities, charities and biotechs. Ultimately, we seek to get new medical breakthroughs to patients faster.
We fund, collaborate and provide scientific expertise across some of the most under-served challenges facing human health: motor neuron disease, chronic respiratory infection, global health, rare diseases, and childhood cancer. We look for projects where we can use our experience in translational science to remove barriers for early scientific discoveries.
