      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

EAN Head Office Profiles: Abigail & Bernadette

March 15, 2023

The EAN Head Office in Vienna, Austria, is the nerve centre of the European Academy of Neurology, serving as the main base of EAN activity, with various personnel also operating from elsewhere around Europe. With so many of our staff interacting with EAN Members from a distance, but relatively few chances to meet in person, we decided to use this platform to introduce the team behind the scenes. Each month, we aim to present two of our faithful crew. This time it’s Abigail from the Scientific Department, and Bernadette from the Congress Department.

Name: Abigail Magno

Department: Scientific

Role: Scientific Coordinator

Joined: November 2020

…

Not too long ago, I embarked on a new adventure, which we all know as the EAN. My role within the Scientific Department has developed since then and I am now primarily responsible for organising the Science School, ensuring that the guideline production process runs smoothly, and coordinating the project activities of the Guideline Production Group.

Prior to my stint at the EAN, I completed a bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering with a specific interest in process optimisation and systems design. When people hear this, they always ask me why I am in the health field. For me, the fun part about it is that there is always a process or a system to design or optimise wherever you go. It doesn’t always have to be automating an inventory system or reducing the cycle times of an assembly line, it could be managing a guideline development process or putting structure to scientific projects. Like everything at the EAN, it is challenging but definitely worthwhile, because I get the chance to work with the most inspiring and passionate people.  

I come from the Philippines and moved to Vienna at the age of 12. Although Austria is vastly different from my country of origin, I have come to appreciate Vienna now as an adult and now consider this small city my home. Outside work, you will often spot me in cafes or outdoors with my trusted drawing tools. While I mostly create art for myself, I also love sharing it with people. I find joy in taking commissions, joining collaborative projects with other people, and designing merchandise. In fact, this was something that got me through my stressful final year in college. When possible, I also try to join conventions to exhibit my art and meet new people. In my true free time, I enjoy spending time with my loved ones, having art (yes, again) sessions with friends, playing video games, and trying out new activities or restaurants.

Like most, I also love travelling, so I am happy that I can combine this with work. For example, in two weeks, you will find me in Salzburg for the upcoming Science School, and of course, in Budapest in July for the greatly anticipated EAN Congress 2023!


Name: Bernadette Lintl

Department: Congress

Role: Coordinator

Joined: August 2021

…

After a long time as a stay-at-home mother, I got the chance to join the EAN in August 2021 as an assistant in the congress department. It was a good feeling to be back at work and being trained by such a great team, as I was still very new to the congress business.

At first, I helped with smaller tasks related to the database and abstracts. After that, I was increasingly involved with registration, which is now my primary responsibility. Almost one year later I attended my first congress in Vienna, and I liked it so much that I knew this was the job for me.

I grew up and went to high school in Admont, Styria. When I was eighteen, I left home and went to Leoben to study industrial logistics, but it wasn’t as interesting as I thought, so I discontinued studying and decided to move to Vienna. I never thought I would ever live in a big city without mountains. But I learned to love Vienna with all its bustle.

After a few years I got pregnant with my first child and stayed at home ever since. Now I have two wonderful children, who are 15 and 11 years old, and for me it was time to go back to work and find something to grow and thrive in, which I found at the EAN.

In my spare time I like to crochet or knit. I started handicrafts when my second child was born. I liked the idea of making clothes for him, but I was never that good; however, I still enjoy this kind of hobby and am getting better at it. When I’m not knitting socks or crocheting little stuffed animals, I like to play video or board games with my family, which we usually enjoy. I also like to take care of our little garden and watch the busy bees at work and the flowers growing.
