The European Academy of Neurology is announcing its third congress from June 24th- June 27th at the RAI Congress Center in Amsterdam. We are expecting more than 6000 neurologists from Europe and all over the world for this outstanding annual event. The programme and the education committee of the EAN worked hard to create a program which will present cutting edge science and first class education for the general neurologist. The purpose is to present excellence in neurology and when the participants leave the congress they will know all about the current status and the important news in our field.

The Kingdom of the Netherlands, also known as Holland, has been densely populated from medieval times with the largest part of the population living in cities. Amongst these are many well-preserved gems like the university town of Leiden, where Rembrandt van Rijn was borne, Haarlem, the city of Frans Hals, the cheese town Alkmaar in the north, the Hansa town of Deventer in the east, the astute university city of Groningen in the north and Maastricht, the capital of the province of Limburg.

For June 2017, we have selected: Breitenstein C, Flöel A, Ziegler W, et al., for the FCET2EC study group. Intensive speech and language therapy in patients with chronic aphasia after stroke: a randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint, controlled trial in health-care setting. Lancet Neurol 2017;389:1528-1538. Speech and language impairments are among the most disabling symptoms after a stroke. Patients with aphasia persisting 6 months (chronic aphasia) after a stroke are not infrequent (20%). Hence, the social and economic impact of chronic aphasia is substantial.
