Conferences about glial research
| Title | Place | Description | Website | Date |
| Warsaw Glia Symposium 2025 | Warsaw, Poland | The symposium will focus on glial cells, exploring their diversity, functions, and crucial roles in the development, plasticity, and pathology of the nervous system. | https://sites.google.com/uw.edu.pl/warsaw-glia-symposium/home | 16 – 17 October 2025 |
| Microglia, Neuroinflammation, Immunity Network 2ndWorkshop | Bordeaux NeuroSchool, France | This year, the workshop stands out thanks to a novel format: the three hands-on modules will converge around a common scientific project aiming to decipher the synthesis of IL 1β by brain-resident myeloid cells, using a biosensor mouse model. | club-de-cellules-gliales.assoconnect.com | 3 – 7 November 2025 |
| 2nd UK Glia Network meeting | Bristol, UK | Bringing together #Gliologists in the UK and Ireland Confirmed keynote speakers include: Baljit S. Khakh, UCLA Ragnhildur Thóra Káradóttir, University of Cambridge Diego Gomez-Nicola, University of Southampton. There will be many more talks and opportunities for ECRs to present their work!! | https://www.glianetwork.org.uk/news-and-upcoming-events/2nd-uk-glia-symposium | 7-8 June 2026 |
| Cell Biology of the Neuron – Gordon Research Conference (GRC) | Lucca (Barga), Italy | This conference focuses on emerging themes in neuronal structure, function, and homeostasis in both physiological and pathological conditions. It emphasizes neuron-glia interactions and communication, making it highly relevant for glia researchers. | https://www.grc.org/ | 7 – 12 June 2026 |
| 28th meeting of the French Glial Cell Club | Domaine du Lazaret, Sète, France | The annual meeting brings together expert scientists in the field of glial cell biology from Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, the UK and the US. The program offers comprehensive coverage of the burgeoning field of glia research. | More info will soon be shared here: https://frenchglialcellclub.fr/scientific-meeting | 17-20 November 2026 |
