The focus of the Culture Night at the Medical Museion will this year be "The raw material of medical science from cadaver to DNA".
The evening will be filled with various activities and presentations, and you can listen to a talk by post doc Nina Linde Reislev from DRCMR, who will give a presentation about the raw material of aging research. DRCMR is collaborating with the Center for Healthy Aging in a project, where MR scanning is used to examine the effect of physical training on the muscles and the brain, focusing on the aging population of Denmark.
