PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--La Fondation Ipsen and Nature Publishing Group share the same desire to help new scientific knowledge emerge and facilitate the exchange of the most promising ideas from a variety of different research areas. In 2007, the two organisations came together to create a new series of scientific events – the Emergence & Convergence mini-symposia - one-day meetings highlighting some of the most dynamic sectors in biological and medical research. The topic of the fourth meeting (held in Paris on 6 June 2008) was multiple sclerosis, a particularly important area in neurological research. The symposium addressed open questions in multiple sclerosis research, focused on identifying future discoveries that may lead to new therapies.
