Acquisizione competenze tecnico-professionali:Expanding current knowledge on neuroscience of cancer requires multidisciplinary efforts and collaboration among scientists working in the fields of neuroscience, cancer biology, evelopmental biology, immunology. Our new conference series (more than neurons conference: breaking borders series) aims at fostering discussion on the burgeoning field of cancer neuroscience and its related anticancer therapies. among the topics of the conference are: nerves/nervous system contributions to oncogenesis, metastasis, immunomodulation, electrical hyperactivity and seizures, cancer pain and drug response. Available preclinical and clinical data, including ongoing trials investigating molecules targeting cancer-nervous system interactions will be discussed together with the challenges and therapeutic potential for repurposing neuroactive drugs as an additional anti-cancer approach, in combination with current treatment regimens.
