Applications are now open for the 2023 Focused Workshop!
The 2023 event will take place in Utrecht, The Netherlands from 22-24 October 2023 with a programme on the topic of unruptured intracranial aneurysms and subarachnoid hemorrhage.
The deadline for applications is 12 June 2023.
The ESO’s first ever Focused Workshop took place in Bergen, Norway
Stroke in the Young | 25-26 April 2022
Stroke in the young is different, complex and challenging. There is an increased prevalence of traditional risk factors already at a young age, but also special risk factors and factors that are either unique or more prevalent in women. In many young stroke patients, aetiology remains unclear.
This workshop gave a comprehensive overview on the topic, including an update on newly gathered knowledge obtained from network-based international research.
The ESO Focused Workshop 2022 was organised by the Bergen Stroke Research Group (BSRG) in cooperation with the Norwegian Stroke Organisation (NSO) and with the support of the European Stroke Organisation (ESO).
