A conference in Rome, on December 1st, organized by the Academy and the EBRI Foundation in collaboration with the Senator for Life Prof. Elena Cattaneo. Through the memory of Rita Levi-Montalcini, the meeting aims to emphasize the importance for society of supporting basic research on the brain. The neurodegenerative diseases that afflict the community, and which still do not have adequate treatment, will be solved only by adequately supporting fundamental research.
