      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

President’s page: Educational activities of the European Academy of Neurology outside the annual congress

April 3, 2018

 

 

 

 

 

by Günther Deuschl

 

 

 

Education is one of the key elements of the activities of the European Academy of Neurology. While the congress is well known to most of our members and European Neurologists the activities outside the congress are much less known. EAN has a special committee working on education[1] with Prof. Hannah Cock as the chair and the teaching course subcommittee under the leadership of Prof. Claudia Sommer. They are charged to develop an educational program including education for neurologists in training and advanced courses with the emphasis on training for the general neurologist. While the field of Neurology is getting increasingly broader it is of paramount importance to set a common ground for all neurologists which our education committee has carefully developed. For the congress educational programme, a five-year curriculum of the educational content covering all relevant topics has been developed over the past 3 years and parts of this plan are also applied to the educational activities outside the congress.

The regional teaching courses[2] are a traditional format of the EAN organized in close co-operation with the national societies. Last year they were held in Ukraine and Bulgaria with altogether more than 600 participants. The audience are active general neurologists from the country itself and neighboring countries. The purpose is to update the audience on the different fields of neurology. When possible EAN collaborates with the European Specialty Societies to achieve this goal. In 2017, for the first time an EAN day[3] has been organized in Moldova. It is intended for national societies, who cannot organize an EAN congress, but would like to bring EAN lectures to their local congress. It is organized one day before the national event.

The spring school[4] is a training camp mainly for neurologists in training dating back to the former EFNS-tradition. It takes place in Stare Splavy, Czech Republic. This 4-day-long event allows a very close interaction between the speakers and the 120 participants and has been the starting point for an international career for many of them. In 2018 we will have an autumn school[5] for the first time which is more hands-on oriented. It will cover this year gait disturbances, tremor and disorders of consciousness. Further special courses are continuously developed – for example the one on rare diseases[6] last year in Cluj, Romania. Together with the African Academy of Neurology, American Academy of Neurology, IBRO, Movement Disorders Society, World Federation of Neurology and World Stroke Organisation, EAN has for the 9th time organized a teaching course in Burkina Faso, sub-Saharan Africa for more than 100 participants.[7]

Besides the structured education for neurologists qualified neurologists in training can apply for customized training. For this purpose EAN has approved training centers within Europe which can welcome trainees for a well-defined clinical experience (usually a special aspect of practical neurology). EAN provides up to 35 grants for 6 weeks for these awardees (Clinical fellowships). The Research Fellowships aim at neurologists in training, planning to carry out a research work at one of these European academic departments. Each year up to 8 persons get awarded for 6-12 months stipends.

All EAN members have free access to a web-based e-learning platform, ebrain,[8] with over 550 e-learning sessions and numerous recordings from previous EAN teaching courses, some virtual cases, and an annual self-assessment exercise aimed specifically at neurologists in training. Other e-learning resources are the monthly CME questions on the European Journal of Neurology article of the month[9], and the e-book on Neurological Examination by Profs. Toyka and collegues.[10]

In fact education outside the congress has a high priority for EAN which is illustrated by the total sum of €550,000 spent in 2017 for educational activities outside of the congress. For 2018 even €630,000 are budgeted.

Education is continuously evolving and follows the new developments of neurology. Therefore EAN is also taking care of the European curricula for neurology: While the neurological curriculum is finalized by authority of each European country, general overarching recommendations are developed at European level by the European Union of Medical Specialists-Section Neurology (UEMS-SN). EAN is collaborating with the UEMS-SN to develop and update this European[11] core curriculum for neurology. Also there is a common European UEMS/EAN board exam for neurology[12] which can be taken at the annual EAN congress. EAN will continue to take care of all the overarching questions related to the education of the European neurologists at the high-level political scenery as well as on the everyday educational activities.
