Description
More than 75 local, regional and international speakers will present a range of topics that are highly relevant to recent scientific, clinical and social developments in epilepsy. The Scientific Organising Committee and the Scientific Consultative Committee have been working arduously to prepare a scientific programme with international appeal. The main topics of the Congress will be: Epilepsy Surgery Who and When? , Outcome in Newly-diagnosed Epilepsy , Prevention of Symptomatic Epilepsy and Psychological Wellbeing in Epilepsy . In addition to the main and post main session topics are a range of parallel sessions which focus on the pertinent issues of epilepsy practice and research, the Masakazu Seino Memorial Lecture, practical video sessions, lively debates, interactive workshops, and topical satellite symposia. The Asian Epilepsy Academy (ASEPA) will once again organise a series of didactic lectures by world-renowned experts in their respective fields and precongress workshops on epilepsy surgery and basic science. A two day programme on Epilepsy and Society will run in conjunction with the Congress. We are happy to provide details of the scientific programme with this announcement.
Contributions from researchers and clinicians with platform and poster presentations will be an integral part of the scientific programme. We encourage you to consider submitting abstracts of current research for presentation at the Congress. Travel bursaries will be available for delegates below 50 years of age. Please record in your diary June 11th, 2010 as the deadline for submission of abstracts and travel bursary applications.
