      Paper of the Month

      One hot topic, one expert, three questions: Kristian Steen Frederiksen on our May 2023 Paper of the Month

      May 16, 2023

      Executive Page Dear EAN members, dear friends, It is my pleasure to give you an update on behalf of the EAN Scientific Committee following a busy year since my appointment as chair. It has been a privilege to be so deeply involved in the scientific activities of the EAN and to work closely with an amazing community of people who are so dedicated to the advancement of neurology. One of the strongest threads within that community is the EAN’s group of Scientific Panels, which are often referred to as the organisation’s ‘scientific backbone’. The panels have a hand in everything the EAN does from a scientific point of view, including coordinating clinical research, disseminating good practice, assisting in planning the EAN annual congress, supporting the EAN’s educational efforts, and producing guidelines that assist neurologists in daily practice. All of this work requires a considerable amount of oversight, and this is why each panel is run by its own Management Group, elected by the panel members. Being a part of one of these Management Groups (PDF) is an opportunity to play a direct part in determining the direction of scientific progress within Europe, and I am excited to say that the call for applications to stand for election will be announced in September. All panel members and EAN individual members are eligible to apply to be candidates, with the vote being held among the existing panel members in autumn. I would like to urge every neurologist with a passion for the scientific future of their special area of interest to consider standing for election to the relevant Management Group and to look out for the call for applications later this month. I can tell you from personal experience that fulfilling a role such as this within the structure of the EAN is a fascinating and extremely rewarding experience. The chance to take on such a unique leadership position should not be missed! The most satisfying aspect of being involved in the EAN’s organisational structure is surely seeing all the hard work and planning come to fruition when a small idea evolves into a newly launched project. One such example is the 1st EAN Science School, taking place in Salzburg next March. The idea of the Science School is to offer early career neurologists with an interest in translational research a new avenue for learning about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders. Application for this very first edition, on ‘Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system’, closed last week and we have been delighted with the level of interest. It was a pleasure to be part of the task force in charge of planning this new project and I look forward to seeing it officially transferred to the hands of the Scientific Committee after a successful event and evaluation in spring. Of our ongoing activities, one of the most significant is the EAN Neuro-covid Registry, which aims to collate epidemiological data on neurological manifestations in patients with COVID-19 infection reported by neurologists in outpatient services, emergency rooms, and hospital departments. We currently have 1,542 patients entered in the database, from 35 centres across 23 countries. So far, 29 patients have been followed for 12 months and 387 have completed the 6-months follow up. This is a decent start, but I would like to strongly encourage EAN members and their institutions to get involved and contribute cases to what will become an invaluable resource for neurologists and clinicians to improve care for Covid-19 patients. Finally, I would like share a word on a forthcoming collaboration between EAN and the Human Brain Project in December, that I think will interest a lot of EAN members. The EAN-EBRAINS joint workshop on ‘The future of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences’ will be a three-day virtual event that aims to discuss issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe, from ethics to data safety and privacy, including those specific to data federation, such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. The whole workshop is completely free of charge and registration is open until 25 November, so please check out the details and sign up! I wish you all a healthy and pleasant autumn and I look forward to updating you again. Best wishes Thomas Berger Chair of the EAN Scientific Committee

Being a part of one of these Management Groups (PDF) is an opportunity to play a direct part in determining the direction of scientific progress within Europe, and I am excited to say that the call for applications to stand for election will be announced in September. All panel members and EAN individual members are eligible to apply to be candidates, with the vote being held among the existing panel members in autumn. I would like to urge every neurologist with a passion for the scientific future of their special area of interest to consider standing for election to the relevant Management Group and to look out for the call for applications later this month. I can tell you from personal experience that fulfilling a role such as this within the structure of the EAN is a fascinating and extremely rewarding experience. The chance to take on such a unique leadership position should not be missed! The most satisfying aspect of being involved in the EAN’s organisational structure is surely seeing all the hard work and planning come to fruition when a small idea evolves into a newly launched project. One such example is the 1st EAN Science School, taking place in Salzburg next March. The idea of the Science School is to offer early career neurologists with an interest in translational research a new avenue for learning about basic pathomechanisms of neurological disorders. Application for this very first edition, on ‘Pathophysiology of disorders of the nervous system’, closed last week and we have been delighted with the level of interest. It was a pleasure to be part of the task force in charge of planning this new project and I look forward to seeing it officially transferred to the hands of the Scientific Committee after a successful event and evaluation in spring. Of our ongoing activities, one of the most significant is the EAN Neuro-covid Registry, which aims to collate epidemiological data on neurological manifestations in patients with COVID-19 infection reported by neurologists in outpatient services, emergency rooms, and hospital departments. We currently have 1,542 patients entered in the database, from 35 centres across 23 countries. So far, 29 patients have been followed for 12 months and 387 have completed the 6-months follow up. This is a decent start, but I would like to strongly encourage EAN members and their institutions to get involved and contribute cases to what will become an invaluable resource for neurologists and clinicians to improve care for Covid-19 patients. Finally, I would like share a word on a forthcoming collaboration between EAN and the Human Brain Project in December, that I think will interest a lot of EAN members. The EAN-EBRAINS joint workshop on ‘The future of medical data sharing in clinical neurosciences’ will be a three-day virtual event that aims to discuss issues and challenges associated with data sharing in Europe, from ethics to data safety and privacy, including those specific to data federation, such as the development and validation of federated algorithms. The whole workshop is completely free of charge and registration is open until 25 November, so please check out the details and sign up! I wish you all a healthy and pleasant autumn and I look forward to updating you again. Best wishes Thomas Berger Chair of the EAN Scientific Committee

New teaching formats for the EAN congress

September 1, 2015

Claudia Sommer  by Claudia Sommer

 

Building on successes in Berlin this summer, you will soon see, particularly from 2017 onwards, new formats being introduced at the annual EAN meetings. First of all, the main symposia will not be changed. Here, exciting and novel clinical and scientific aspects of a disease related topic will be presented by experts in the field. The format of the focused workshops will also be kept as it was before. Up to three speakers will deal with a narrow and timely topic, aiming to promote discussion around new ideas, evidence or theories.

You will however see increasing changes related to the education program. The classical teaching course with up to four speakers and three levels will be kept. The distinction of teaching courses by “levels”, i.e. whether they are meant for beginners, advanced neurologists, or experts, was recently introduced and will be maintained. We are looking forward to feedback on how the levels work, and if the expectations are satisfied.

The second teaching format are the interactive sessions. These are based around clinical cases. A maximum of 6 cases centered around a unifying theme will be presented in one session. A chairperson will lead the general discussion and guide the presenters through the session. Case presentations are designed in a way to allow breaks for questions, which will be answered by the audience using a digital voting app, which can be used on smartphones, tablets or computers. The presenters of each case will discuss the answers with the audience. A similar type of session has been used at past European neurology congresses and was very popular. We hope to revive this format in a modern way.

Then, there will be the case-based facilitated workshops. These require extensive preparation by the speakers, and very active participation by the audience. In fact, audience may be the wrong word here. After thematic preparation, which includes preparatory reading before the session and a short introductory presentation by the chairperson, participants will divide up into working groups and will discuss special aspects of patient cases or related problems. At intervals, the working groups will present their results to the whole group, and tasks will rotate between subgroups. Of course, the exact format may vary depending on the topic, but small group discussions will be a core element. This type of session will not only be very educative and entertaining, it will also facilitate personal contacts and promote networking. We are looking forward to put this new exciting format to test.

Last but not least, there will be the hand-on courses. Like the classical teaching courses, these will come in 3 levels. Preparatory reading and a short introductory presentation may be included. Specialist equipment, for example for neurophysiology or neurosonology, will be set up. Participants will be able to practice under expert guidance. These will be small-group courses that will be repeated over time, according to their popularity.

We, the members of the teaching course subcommittee are looking forward to see these new formats come into life. Proposals by the Subspecialty Scientific Panels have now been prepared, and we are excited to find out which experiences both presenters and participants will make.

Professor Claudia Sommer works at the University Hospital in Würzburg, Department of Neurology, Germany and is member of the EAN Teaching Course sub-Committee.
