The symposium, themed "Neural and Immune Codes in Cancer" will gather an interdisciplinary community of researchers to discuss the interplay between the neural and immune systems in relation to cancer initiation, progression and therapy. This symposium will emphasise the dynamic interactions among tumour cells, neurons and immune components, and how these relationships impact tumour growth, metastasis and the tumour microenvironment.

Since the 1990s, non-invasive brain stimulation has grown from an experimental idea into an established tool for treating depression as well as advancing neuroscience research. Among these technologies, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is clinically validated and used to treat major depressive disorder, also known as unipolar depression.
