The Neurotoxicity Society
started in November 2001 as a non-profit Scientific Society focused on the study of topics related to neurodegenerative disorders, neuropsychiatric disorders, neural adaptations to substance abuse and to mechanisms associated with nerve regeneration, neurotrophic actions, neurotoxic mechanisms and neuroprotection.
I have been an active member of the Society for more than 10 years and helped with the development an promotion of the society.
Aims of the Society:
- develop scientific interaction directed towards increased understanding of processes, mechanisms, and outcomes of neurodegeneration, nerve regeneration, neuroprotection, neurotrophin actions, and the associated role of glia and other satellite cells;
- facilitate the advance of preclinical research discoveries to clinical and medical utility
- promote dissemination of knowledge on these topics to the public
- host regular scientific meetings on a neurotoxicity theme
