Training, Research and Raising of Public Awareness in Cell Biology and Pathology of Neuroglia

“How does the brain work?” has been among the most frequently asked questions for more than centuries. Therefore, training and education of neuroscientists will be of paramount importance to the future prosperous development of European countries.

The EU-GliaPhD consortium has defined the following aims in a novel Innovative Training Network (ITN) funded by EU Horizon 2020: to train the future generation of neuroscientists, to enhance and improve the communication with the public, and to establish inter-sectorial collaborations between academia and industry.
