High Training Course in “Advanced Myology”

As last year, the IIM meeting will be part of the high training course in “ADVANCED MYOLOGY”, which is managed by the University of Perugia (2 CFU and certificate) and is reserved to trainees who are under 35 years old.

The ADVANCED MYOLOGY Course will include an additional dedicated day (October 21) with lessons and roundtable discussion with our keynote speakers: Edgar Gomes (Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de Lisboa-Portugal), Johnny Kim (Max-Planck-Institute for Heart and Lung Research, Bad Nauheim-Germany), Elizabeth McNally (Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago-USA) and Michael Rudnicki (Sprott Centre for Stem Cell Research, Ottawa-Canada).

N.B.Young trainees who want to participate in the “ADVANCED MYOLOGY” Course must first register through this site and subsequently, through the personal myIIM page, follow the dedicated link to the University of Perugia.

To favor the training of young researchers, IIM is looking onto the possibility to refund part of the ADVANCED MYOLOGY course registration.
