SUMMARY:Neurology Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:UNC Neurology is pleased to present the 3rd annual Neurology Day exhibiting neurology research\, collaboration and trainee showcase. \n\nAnnouncing Keynote Speaker: Alison Goate\, D.Phil.\nAlison M. Goate\, DPhilProfessor & Chair\, Genetics and Genomic Science at Mount Sinai\nDr. Goate is an internationally recognized leader in the genetics of neurodegenerative diseases and serves as the Jean C. and James W. Crystal Professor of Genomics and Chair of the Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. \nFor more than three decades\, Dr. Goate has been at the forefront of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) research. She was part of the team that discovered the first mutation causing familial Alzheimer’s disease and contributed to identifying major genetic variants for both AD and FTD\, including Trem2 and MAPT mutations. Her work has helped shape current understanding of how microglial biology and genetic risk factors contribute to disease. Today\, her lab uses cutting‑edge genome‑editing technologies to uncover disease mechanisms and advance therapeutic development. \nDr. Goate is also the founding director of Mount Sinai’s Ronald M. Loeb Center for Alzheimer’s Disease and has received some of the field’s highest honors\, including the Potamkin Award\, the Rainwater Prize\, the MetLife Award\, and the Alzheimer’s Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award. She is an elected fellow of both the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the National Academy of Medicine. \n\nWorking Agenda\n\n\n\n3PM\nWelcome & Oral Presentations\n\n\n3:55PM\nPoster Session A\n\n\n5PM\nKeynote Speaker Presentation by Dr. Goate\n\n\n6PM\nPoster Session B\n\n\n7PM\nClosing Remarks\n\n\n\n\nCall for Abstracts\n\nWe welcome abstracts on all neurology-related research. Submissions should be concise and informative\, limited to a single PDF page. The format is flexible\, but the content must be clearly readable when printed on an A4 paper. Figures and tables are allowed as long as they fit within the page limit. \nTo submit your abstract\, please follow the link to our submission portal \nPlease ensure that your submission includes relevant details such as abstract title\, authors’ names\, and affiliations. Submission portal will close at midnight on March 3\, 2026. \nLearn More Here Abstract Submission Portal for Neurology Day 2026\n\nRegister to Attend\nAttendees must register for the event but the registration is free.
