DESCRIPTION:Manuel Friese will present\, 'Disentangling neurodegeneration i
 n multiple sclerosis'. \n\nRegistration available here. \n\nSpeaker: Manue
 l Friese\, MD\, PhD\n\nUniversity Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf\, Insti
 tute of Neuroimmunology and Multiple Sclerosis\, Hamburg\, Germany \n\nAbs
 tract: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the ce
 ntral nervous system (CNS) with continuous neuronal loss. Treatment of cli
 nical progression remains challenging due to lack of insights into pathway
 s that determine neuronal vulnerability to inflammation. Although inflamma
 tory relapses can be effectively suppressed by immunomodulatory therapies\
 , patients suffer from ongoing neurodegeneration with highly variable dise
 ase progression. Here I will explore the pathomechanisms of inflammation-i
 nduced neurodegeneration and how to translate these findings into potentia
 l drug treatments.\n\nBio: Manuel A. Friese studied medicine at the Univer
 sities of Hamburg\, Oxford and University College London and received his 
 MD in 2001. He completed his neurology training at the Universities of Tüb
 ingen and Hamburg. After his postdoctoral training at the University of Ox
 ford from 2004––2008\, he started his laboratory as an Emmy Noether resear
 ch fellow of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft at the University of Hamb
 urg. Since 2013 he has been consultant neurologist and Professor of Neuroi
 mmunology at the University of Hamburg and since 2014 director of the INIM
 S. His laboratory focuses on inflammatory and neurodegenerative aspects of
  neuroimmunological and neuroinfectious diseases.\n\n\nSupported by the ge
 nerosity of the Killam Trusts \, The Neuro’s Killam Seminar series hosts o
 utstanding guest speakers whose research is of interest to the scientific 
 community at The Neuro and 51³Ô¹ÏÍø.\n
