Science School

EAN is happy to announce establishment of the new type of a school!

For the first Science School in 2022, the chosen overarching theme will be “Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system”.

The idea of establishing a Science School is to offer early career neurologists who are interested or already involved in translational research a possibility to understand or to learn more about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders and to improve/develop treatments in the future. It is intended to highlight basic disease mechanisms, important research tools and emerging technologies which are paradigmatic in clinical neuroscience and may also inspire common research approaches between different subspecialties of neurology, as a unique feature of EAN.

• State-of-the-art morning lectures exclusive for 60 participants with afternoon small group (20 participants each) workshop to ensure hands-on focus for 3 days.
• Networking with participants and speakers during dinners, breaks, and the social programme. (Social networking programme to be announced)
• Accommodation, tuition, board and programme are covered by EAN – Participants pay only for their travel. (Participation throughout the course is mandatory)

Organised by:EAN Science School Task Force

Location: Hotel Heffterhof (Salzburg, Austria)
