Neurodegenerative diseases are related to neurons present in human brain. The global neurodegenerative disease market is expected to rise at a CAGR of 4.90% during the forecast period 2016-2023. The major driver of the global neurodegenerative disease market is rising aging population globally. According to the National Institute on Aging, 6.5 million people aged 65 years and above globally. The worldwide population of the oldest people of age 80 and above is anticipated to rise by thrice that is from 126.5 million to 446.6 million during 2015 to 2050.

Since the nature of the neurodegenerative diseases is complex, there are many factors that prompt the growth of the global neurodegenerative disease market. Some of the key factors include the rapid growth of neurodegenerative diseases across the globe and raising awareness about mental disorders. The rising geriatric population across the world increases the chances of occurrence of neurological diseases. Researchers are being conducted to find an effective treatment for neurodegenerative diseases can fuel the growth of this market. The major restraining factor of the global neurodegenerative disease market is the lack of effective drugs and therapies to treat the disease. Also, the lack of information about the causes of these neurodegenerative diseases hinders the development of drugs and treatment for the same.

With the advanced aging of the ‘baby boom’ generation in many Western countries, age-related neurodegenerative disorders like dementia and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are becoming a major healthcare problem. Approximately 10% of adults above 65 years and 47% of adults above 85 years suffer from dementia, 1–3% of the population above 60 years currently suffers from PD, while (partly) genetically determined neurodegenerative disorders like Huntington’s chorea or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) affect a considerable number of subject.

In Europe, 8% of Neuro researchers are going. In the USA 11% of Neuro research is going.

Planning a Trip to Toronto, Canada!!! Attending Meeting!!!

An issue with VISA!!

Neurogenetics 2022 Committee will be happy to help you in all regards to plan your trip to Toronto, Canada. Avail the official invitation letter from us to attend this event ahead with a closer step for approval of your VISA.

Find out what you need to do to visit Canada as a tourist or business person, how to extend your stay in Canada and what documents you need to carry with you to transit through Canada.

Application submission:

Canada does not have a visa office in every country so it is important that Delegates/Attendees visit the website of the visa office responsible for processing their visa applications.  Information is available on the website on how to submit a visa application and the documentation required. 

Delegates/Attendees are encouraged to submit their visa applications well in advance of the date of the event at a Visa Application Centre or on-line E-applications (e-Apps).

E-Apps

This system allows clients to submit applications online.

Delegates/Attendees that need a visa but require their passport for other travel purposes are strongly encouraged to submit their visa applications online (e-Apps).  Delegates/Attendees that choose to apply online will not have to submit their passport until a decision has been taken on their applications.  If required, the visa office will send the applicant instructions on how and where to send their passports to finalize the visa process.  

Visa Application Centres (VACs):

VACs are commercial service providers authorized by Canada to provide specific services to applicants. 

VACs provide a number of services including help applicants fill out forms, answer questions and ensure that applications are complete, thereby reducing unnecessary delays or refusals due to incomplete applications.

Applicants that are required to provide biometrics information as part of the visa application process can do so at a VAC.  Additional information on the biometrics requirements is available at the IRCC website.

VACs send applications to Visa Offices and transmit decisions to applicants in a secure and confidential manner. VACs do not process visa applications and play no role in the decision-making process.

Visa Applications Processing Time:

Processing time for visa applications vary depending on the office and the time of the year.  Participants should be encouraged to apply early for their visas, and to submit complete applications including all supporting documents.  

Please visit the IRCC website for information on the time it takes to process visa applications at the various visa offices. 

NEW - Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA)

As of March 15, 2016, visa-exempt foreign nationals are expected to have an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to fly to or transit through Canada. Exceptions include U.S. citizens and travelers with a valid Canadian visa. Canadian citizens, including dual citizens, and Canadian permanent residents are not eligible to apply for an eTA.

However, from March 15, 2016, until fall 2016, travellers who do not have an eTA can board their flight, as long as they have appropriate travel documents, such as a valid passport. During this time, border services officers can let travellers arriving without an eTA into the country, as long as they meet the other requirements to enter Canada. We invite you to consult the IRCC website regularly for information updates on eTA.
