Experts in stroke research and mid-career researchers meet in Garmisch to discuss the latest and hottest topics in stroke research
The workshop will take place from 30 November – 2 December 2023
The European Stroke Science Workshop (ESSW) convenes top experts in the field of clinical, translational, and basic stroke research with the aim to:
- discuss the latest and hottest topics in stroke research
- enable in-depth discussions
- connect people in an environment that facilitates new ideas and collaborations
- identify future leaders in the field
- strengthen the ESO community
- strengthen the legacy of ESO in terms of “excellence in stroke science”
The European Stroke Science Workshop first convened in 2011 and has become a cornerstone of ESO’s academic activities and a major highlight for researchers from across the globe. Participants and faculty represent stroke researchers at all career stages with diverse backgrounds and specialties. The workshop is comprised of plenary lectures and discussions, balanced with opportunities to build personal connections.
Why should you apply?
The GSSW could provide an opportunity for mid-career stroke researchers to present, discuss and advance their research programmes amongst a small meeting of later-career stroke researchers.
There will be a competitive application process for a limited number of places at the 7th GSSW for mid-career researchers to attend and present a poster about their existing and future research programme; in addition, one mid-career researcher will be selected by the GSSW organisers to make an oral presentation.
