The 3^rd ESN-ISN Neurochemistry School brought together 24 young scientists (PhD students and postdocs, competitively chosen for their academic performance) from European and neighboring countries with our distinguished faculty to explore the mechanisms of the common functional pathways in neurodegeneration, inflammation and cancer, which apparently show an intriguing and intricate interrelation with both positive and inverse comorbidities.

For one week, attendees, who received full support from ESN for travel and all incurred expenses during the School term, participated in advanced scientific lectures (23), discussions, poster presentations, and had the opportunity to choose from 14 different state-of-the-art, hands-on laboratory modules, according to their own interests.

Mrs. Antonia Trichopoulou gave a special lecture, related to her studies on the health effects of the Mediterranean diet.
