News from the global Schools of Neuroimmunology
News from the schools of ISNI We are pleased to report on the activities of the Global Schools of Neuroimmunology (GSNI). It has been very busy! GSNI encompasses the regional schools of the European School of Neuroimmunology (ESNI), Americas School of Neuroimmunology (ASNI), Asia-Pacific School of Neuroimmunology (APSNI) and the African School of Neuroimmunology (AfSNI). All four schools have been very active which we are delighted to report on. ESNI has been hosting regular virtual journal clubs that have been very well attended. A paper is chosen and discussed by a volunteer junior researcher, and the author of the [...]
