BNA Training: Model systems in neuroscience research – the what, why and when?
BNA Event - 5th Nov 2025
Date: 5th November 2025, 13:00 – 16:00 (Online webinar)
Overview: A diverse range of model organisms and systems have played a vital role in illuminating fundamental aspects of neuroscience, elucidating disease mechanisms and in drug discovery for neurological disorders. Neuroscience researchers often have a deep affinity for the model system they primarily use, but as technologies continue to evolve and new techniques emerge, we need to ask ourselves: Are we always using the best model system to answer our scientific question? Are we missing valuable opportunities in to adapt our preferred models or incorporate novel approaches that are used in other model systems? Can we break down our “model system” silos to accelerate the impact of our research?

At a time when the Indian stock market is peaking and has rallied immensely compared to global markets, there are companies that have not performed in the last 10 years. These are definitely a minor portion of the market considering there are hundreds of stocks that have turned multibagger since 2020. What went wrong with these stocks? Reasons vary from corporate governance, sectoral weakness, company specific and so on. But the more important question is, are these stocks worth buying?
