Are you working on a technology with neurological applications? Are you seeking funding from the NIH? Join us the morning of November 10th to learn more about the Neuroscience funding landscape and where you fit in.

You will hear from Dr. Amir Tamiz, Stephanie Fertig, and Dr. Hao Wang from the Office of Translational Research (OTR) at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) on potential opportunities for licensing and/or partnership on current projects in their portfolio and non-dilutive funding opportunities. Then, we will transition to a Neuroscience landscape panel with CNS industry stakeholders, focusing on the predictability of preclinical models and how best to de-risk projects. Lastly, you'll have the chance to hear from current NINDS grantees as they share best practices to prioritize efforts and make the best of resources.

Following the panels and Q&A, don't miss the opportunity to introduce yourself to the OTR at NINDS/NIH during the networking lunch. And finally, for those companies who apply online and are approved, one-on-one meetings with Dr. Tamiz, Ms. Fertig, and Dr. Wang will provide a forum to further discuss your company with them.
