Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Dutch Parkinson Scientists association, we are pleased to welcome you to Groningen for the 2nd Annual Congress on the 4th of November.
We are excited to invite you participate in this momentous meeting, in which we come together and network with basic scientists, clinical researchers, early career investigators, clinicians and patients active in research. Along with networking with colleagues and friends, we hope that you are able to take advantage of the key note lecture, scientific sessions and presentations by junior and senior members and share your theories and breakthroughs. Please register before the 16th of October and submit your abstract before the 9th of October.
