cartell 1996

A l'edició de 1996, dedicada a les malalties neurològiques, es van presentar 120 projectes. D'acord amb la proposta de la Comissió Assessora Científica de la Fundació La Marató de TV3, el Patronat va acordar distribuir 3.677.019 € entre 37 projectes de recerca biomèdica. Els resultats obtinguts es van fer públics en el III Simposium Fundació La Marató de TV3, celebrat l'any 2002.
