6th International Symposium on Pathomechanisms of Amyloid Diseases

Symposium on Pathomechanisms of Amyloid Diseases banner

The 6th International Symposium on Pathomechanisms of Amyloid Diseases will take place on December 4-6, 2024 in Tallahassee, Florida.

Overview

The purpose of this symposium is to bring established investigators, junior researchers and industrials together to discuss and expand this exciting area of research. In addition, a series of educational lectures are planned to educate the beginners (students and post-doctoral fellows) and motivate them to pursue research in this area. Partial support for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows will be offered.

The scientific program includes talks by experts in the field as well as in-depth discussions during the informal sessions. There are opportunities for oral presentations, poster presentations and flash poster presentations of your work. Our aim is to summarize what is already scientifically known and learn about cutting-edge research. In addition, this symposium is a great forum where junior trainees can meet and network with established investigators.

The only facility of its kind in the United States, the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (less formally known as the Magnet Lab) is the largest and highest-powered magnet laboratory in the world, headquartered in a sprawling 370,000-square-foot complex near Florida State University in Tallahassee. The lab also includes sites at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico and the University of Florida in Gainesville. Together these three institutions operate the lab, collaborating in a unique, interdisciplinary way to advance basic science, engineering and technology in the 21st century.

The Magnet Lab

The Magnet Lab

Established by the National Science Foundation in 1990, the lab is a national resource open to both curious visitors and world-renowned scientists. Centralizing the country's greatest magnet-related tools, resources and expertise is not only efficient and cost-effective, but also encourages fruitful, collaborative research at the highest level. Every year, more than 900 visiting scientists and engineers from across the world conduct experiments using our state-of-the-art equipment. Our magnets are far larger, far more powerful and far more complex than the everyday magnets most people are familiar with. Many were designed, developed and built by our magnet engineering and design team, widely recognized as the finest in the world.
