Event details
Event Information
The programme will highlight the relationships between physical activity, neurology, immunology, endocrinology and their associated behaviours. This event is organised with early career researchers in mind and will provide a friendly environment to showcase their research and to network and engage with the key topics and researchers in the field. Last year we held an in person event which was extremely well attended. In 2021 we held a two day virtual conference that was again received with huge success, we aim to build upon these events and bring together similar communities in September.
