The Researchers’ Days are back: From Thursday, 28 November to Saturday, 30 November, the Rockhal will once again transform into a giant research lab with over 30 interactive workshops for curious minds of all ages! This event, organised by the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR), offers scientists a unique platform to present their work to a large audience. Visitors can enjoy a “hands-on” experience, conduct experiments, ask questions and get a very concrete and personal insight into the world of research.
The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) participates in the 2024 edition with a workshop dedicated to rare diseases and organised by the Enzymology & Metabolism group. This research team, led by Associate Prof. Carole Linster, deciphers the cellular metabolism in rare and more common neurodegenerative diseases.
Research on rare diseases – Let’s care for rare!
Learn more about rare diseases that affect millions of people around the world. Observe samples under a microscope, investigate the effect of genetic mutations, experiment with enzymes and discover how scientists search for new treatments.
