Get information about MyEAN and our activities in social networks. Have fun with a paper printout of your #EAN2017 picture at the hashtagprinter or join the tricky challenge of EAN´s brand new “hot wire” game. Learn more about the 2018 EAN Congress in Lisbon
or buy some one-of-a-kind memorabilia: The unique EAN bag, made of the poster background tarps of the 2015 and 2016 EAN congresses in Berlin and Copenhagen. EAN decided to re-use nearly all printed tarps and cloths of the poster booths and design its very own limited collector item. The strictly limited bags (only 150 pieces maximum per congress year) are proudly produced locally in Vienna, Austria by WienWork. The corporate objective is to provide and create jobs for disadvantaged people on the labor market. WienWork enables people with disabilities, chronic illnesses or long-term unemployed people to participate in economic and social life. With every purchase of a bag you support this project. Be sure to get your one-of-a-kind limited bag during the 2017 EAN Congress at the EAN MEET booth for only €20. Stock won’t last long!!
Join us to shape the future of neurology!
LEARN
When visiting the LEARN area, you can find all educational aspects that underpin the EAN vision to promote Excellence in Neurology in Europe. From study programmes outside the EAN congress or grants to support projects in other European Neurological Departments or online learning possibilities – EAN strives to bring education to the people, the neurologists who want to LEARN. LEARNers are changing, ranging from the traditional neurologist used to didactic formal teaching to the new generations who are very comfortable with technology, with physical and virtual spaces and eCommunications. EAN needs to meet all those needs and ideally combine them.
Join us and be passionately curious to learn!
RESEARCH
Get all the information on Scientific Panels – not only on panel membership but also what these panels do and plan to do in the future. There will be a Q&A with members of the Guideline Production Group, where you can ask questions on how guidelines are produced and how to get involved. Get to know the Rare Diseases Taskforce and learn what they do. Grab your copy of the European Journal of Neurology and make yourself familiar with other great publications.
Join us to promote excellence in neurology!
