How to use big data and digital technology to improve epilepsy care and patient outcomes

Veronique Miron, Speaker at the EAN Congress

New insights/development in Stroke treatment
on Tuesday, 2 July 2019 from 8.00-10.00
The neuroinflammatory response to stroke is of interest to me and my lab, given that, similar to what is seen during efficient remyelination, a resolution of the innate immune response is associated with recovery. Neuroimmunology research has recently highlighted the similarities in innate immune responses across various neurological pathologies and their experimental models. It is thus of interest for me to learn more about stroke detection, treatment options, and future developments for therapies.
