Reception and Refreshments from 6:15pm for a 6:30pm start
Professor Zameel Cader, Director of the Oxford Headache Centre and Director of Oxford StemBANCC, which stores stem cells for drug testing, will talk about headaches.
Headaches are anything but fantastic for millions of sufferers. Their impact on people’s lives is often not understood and all too easily dismissed by others. But why do some people get crippling headaches and what is currently thought to cause them? There are many exciting discoveries that are finally paving the way for new treatments that may be truly fantastic.
This talk is hosted by the NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre and the NIHR Clinical Research Network Thames Valley and South Midlands, which are funded by the Department of Health to support research in the NHS.
