Kickoff for JPND project in Istanbul

Together with researchers from Germany, Canada, Turkey and the Czech Republic, Åsa Petersén was awarded the JPND grant for the project Delineating the role of HTT Cis-Variants in the pathogenesis of Huntington disease. In Sweden the grant is funded by Vetenskapsrådet, the Swedish Research Council, and Petersén was awarded SEK 2 500 000.

To initiate the project, a kickoff meeting was held in Istanbul in early July 2024, where all project partners met at Koç University for scientific presentations. You find the program under the image.
