Abstract

The Prion 2024 annual conference, held in Nanchang, China, from 23 to 27 October, drew nearly 300 leading scientists, clinicians, researchers, and students from 17 countries to examine the latest advancements in prion research and related diseases. This landmark event marked the inaugural international prion conference hosted in a developing nation for the first time and celebrated the 20th anniversary of the NeuroPrion Association, the organizing body of this prestigious annual gathering - 'Celebrating Two Decades of Progress: Pioneering a New Era.' The conference spotlighted key themes such as epidemiology, pathogenesis, the connections between ageing and neurodegenerative diseases. It showcased innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for both human and animal prion diseases, as well as related conditions including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, prion protein-associated cancers, and renal injury. The programme featured 70 invited talks and 21 selected oral presentations, culminating in 7 plenary sessions led by esteemed speakers, including Nobel Laureate Stanley B. Prusiner. This overview summarizes key presentations and highlights significant aspects of the conference, emphasizing the impactful discussions and collaborations that emerged from this historic event.
