Participation in the International Conference on Spreading Depolarizaton

 

   The annual "International Conference on Spreading Depolarization (iCSD)" was held this year in Antalya, Türkiye, from 13-17 November 2024. The Department was represented by the HCEMM-USZ Cerebral Circulation and Metabolism Research Group with three poster presentations and one oral presentation. The traditionally relaxed atmosphere of the iCSD provides an excellent opportunity for informal scientific discussions between young researchers and experienced professors. The next iCSD conference will take place in 2025 in Windsor, UK.
