HSP as a model disease to study neurodegeneration


on the 22nd of march 2013 in DRESDEN
takes place our 12th Symposium TWS. We are pleased that we  first time can join the German Society of Human Genetics.Our Symposium will be held during their 24th annual meeting in the Maritim Congress Center in Dresden.
