Germany’s education and research ministry has declared satisfaction with the performance of the Neuroallianz Consortium over the past three years and said it will provide an extra €15 million in non-refundable grants.
The consortium comprises of research institutions such as the universities of Bonn and Duisburg-Essen and biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. Their goal is to improve diagnostic methods and therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and epilepsy by using latest research findings.
