Neuropathology and Central Nervous System Disorders

Neuropathology focuses on diseases affecting the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Accurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases, CNS tumors, and inflammatory conditions requires specialized techniques and expertise. This session explores recent developments in molecular neuropathology, neuroimaging correlation, and biomarkers for conditions such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, and gliomas. The integration of molecular profiling, immunohistochemistry, and advanced microscopy enhances understanding of CNS pathology. Emphasis is placed on multidisciplinary collaboration, translational research, and the role of neuropathology in advancing neurotherapeutics and personalized neurology.
