This symposium brings together world-renowned experts in schizophrenia whose areas of expertise are diverse yet complementary. A key pathology of schizophrenia is likely associated with the cerebral cortex. To gain a better understanding of disease development, the study of brain structure and function is the basis of schizophrenia research. This symposium addresses the educational needs of a wide range of audiences who are interested in, or working on schizophrenia and related disorders. By participating in this comprehensive and stimulating day of lectures, our audience will be able to learn how integrative science from (lab) bench to bedside, and eventually to society, is currently taking place at Hopkins and around the world. |
