Dr. Krüger will provide examples of the first promising approaches to identifying relevant subgroups of patients affected by the disease, based on genetic stratification and stem-cell-based models. He will then explain how concepts for precision medicine and clinical decision support in the treatment of Parkinson's disease may ensure from these results.
The lecture will be held at 17:00 in Meeting Room 6 of Biotech II, on the Belval Campus of the University of Luxembourg. A reception will be held after the conference.
