      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

56th Mind & Brain International Neuropsychiatric Congress

August 1, 2016

MISC_mindbrain_best posters

The International Neuropsychiatric Pula Congress is the scientific conference with the longest tradition in our part of the world. This year it was organized under the auspices of the Croatian President, Mrs. Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic, the co-organization of the Department of Medical Sciences of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and with the endorsement of the World Federation of Neurology (WFN), the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) and the European Psychiatric Association (EPA), the International Institute for brain health,  the Central and the Eastern European Stroke Society (CEESS) and the Board of Trustees of the Congress. This year, the Congress was completely re-structured and re-branded; starting with the title (Mind & Brain), through the content of the main theme, to the content of the educational symposia and workshops. The three main themes: Neuropsychoanalysis, Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration,  Neurorepair clearly showed common subjects, similarities and differences, achievements and possible restrictions of both specialties – neurology and psychiatry, as well as the need for a multidisciplinary approach.

We would like to emphasize the importance and strength of our lecturers. Prof. Mark Solms, founder of Neuropsychoanalysis, a discipline that unified Sigmund Freud’s teaching and neuroscientific methods for presentation of the brain (neuroimaging) as a separate discipline, held a very interesting lecture about the importance of dreams in the mental life of man, with the presentation of the activities of particular parts of the brain. In the second lecture, he showed the importance of instinct (Id), also in relation to the activities of parts of the brain, and held a series of workshops with colleagues interested in psychoanalysis.

Before the start of the main topics, prof. Asim Kurjak held an impressive and brilliant documented lecture, showed the importance of KANET test in the evaluation of fetal brain development and disorders.

In the second main theme, Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration, an extremely important lecture was given by Prof. Franz Fazekas, Vice President of EAN and the author of MRI criteria for assessing multiple sclerosis. Prof. Nenad Bogdanovic, acting chairman of the Memory Clinic at the University of Oslo and in Stockholm, presented a significant new theory in Alzheimer’s disease. Prof. Valeria Caso, president of the European Organization for stroke (ESO), has shown the importance of inflammatory parameters in cerebral hemorrhage. Prof. Karl Bechter from Ulm, prof.Francesco Benedetti from Milan and prof. Norbert Mueller from Munich spoke about inflammatory changes in psychiatric illness, the necessary analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid and the possible application of adequate therapy. Prof. Zdravko Lackovic from the University of Zagreb presented his research on neurogenic inflammation of the meninges as a reaction to pain in the innervation area of the trigeminal nerve.

In the third main theme – Neurorepair, prof. Srećko Gajović from the University of  Zagreb, presented the basic features of his project Glow Brain. Prof. Vida Demarin spoke about the importance of the mechanism of neuroplasticity of the brain in neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Robert Gan showed the results of research about the use of  NeurAid in stroke recovery and Alzheimer’s disease.  Prof. Vesna Seric stressed the importance of diagnosis and treatment of spasticity after stroke. Psychology professor  Tomislav Pučić from Osijek spoke about the importance of Neurofeedbeck in the treatment of neurological disorders. Ass. Prof. Vlatka Vuletić held an interesting lecture about DBS and its relation to neuroprotection.

There were several  thematic symposia (Treatment of depression in Croatia, Interface providers in neurorehabilitation, Epilepsy Symposium, Cerebral and spinal malformations), and the 5. European Psychopathology Summer School.  In the poster session, the three best neurology posters and the three best psychiatry posters have been awarded.

The topics of the next Congress have been discussed at the meeting of the Board of Trustees. The importance of the Congress in the promotion of the latest achievements of both neurology and psychiatry, their similarities and differences and the common way of understanding the brain and the mind and their interactions has been highlighted.
