The 10th International Winter Conference on Neurodegeneration
(lWCN) has taken place from February 14-16,2002, at the lovely
"SchloB Ziethen," an old prussian manor (in Prussia, 'faute de
mieux', called 'SchloB', i. e. cas tle or residence). This place is
20 km off Tegel Airport, Berlin's main airport, and has been
beautifully restored by baroness Edith von Thiingen (nee von BUlow,
i. e. of historical Prussian aristocracy); it lends itself rather
perfectly for the IWCN type of small interdisciplinary workshops on
neurodegenera tion which combine short lectures with plenty of
discussion. In this context, we could quote Alexander von
Humboldt's famous opening words for one of the first international
scientific meetings held at Berlin, on September 18, 1828: "The
main purpose . . . does not consist in a mutual reading of
manuscripts all to be printed after at least one year in
specialised publications, but in the personal communication amongst
those who work in similar scientific fields; the oral and thus more
stimulating exchange of ideas, might they represent facts, opinions
or doubts; the foundation of friendly relations which convey
illumination to our sciences, serene grace to our lives and
tolerance and mildness to our habits . . . Berlin, Sept. 18, 1828
Alexander von Humboldt To the IWCN aficionado, it may come as a
little surprise that this is the pub lication of the 10th Winter
Conference as this might mean that they must have missed number 9."
