Join us for the Second International Conference on Unconventional Animal Models of Alzheimer’s Disease and Aging—an essential forum for researchers, scientists, and professionals engaged in groundbreaking Alzheimer’s disease (AD) studies. This conference will provide a platform to discuss and explore unconventional mammalian and non-murine models of AD that may offer improved translational potential for therapeutic development.
Following the success of the first conference in 2023 in Santiago, Chile, this second edition aims to highlight advancements in research, foster collaboration, and promote scientific discussions.
We have planned six sessions: 1) New Models and Technologies, 2) Genomics Research, 3) Behavioral Science and Integrative Neuroscience, 4) Neural Circuit Organization and Dynamics in Aging and AD, 5) Geriatrics and Aging Process Research, and 6) Biomarker and Intervention Development.
Co-organizers include Drs. Afonso Silva, Patricia Cogra, Bing Ren, and Xiangmin Xu.
For more information, please contact the Center for Neural Circuit Mapping at UC Irvine. We look forward to welcoming you to Irvine in February 2026!
