Abstract
NeuroPrion links 52 laboratories across Europe undertaking excellent research in the field of TSEs. This represents a majority and hence critical mass of actors in the field. NeuroPrion recognises that there are considerable strengths in the European TSE research effort and will reinforce these. Nevertheless, there is fragmentation resulting in some barriers which can be overcome and some areas which can be strengthened. NeuroPrion has as its primary objective the structuring and integration of the efforts of the main European research teams involved with prion diseases in order to achieve durable leadership in the area.
