23-Jun-2023

The 2nd meeting of the Portuguese Network on Extracellular Vesicles will be held in 22nd and 23rd June 2023 in NOVA medical School.

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!

The program will include 2 plenaries and 4 invited talks from international and national speakers that excel in this research field, together with 16 oral presentations and poster sessions, to allow the Portuguese researchers and students to present their outstanding work in the field of extracellular vesicles (EVs).

The event will be divided into 4 different areas:

EVs in cancer
EVs in infection and immunity
EVs in tissue regeneration and degeneration
EVs in neurobiology and metabolic diseases

The program will also include a general meeting of the PNEV members to discuss future directions of the organization.

We hope that this meeting will help to consolidate the network and improve the excellent research on EVs in Portugal.
