The Academy has chosen Berlin for many reasons . It is one of the world’s most vibrant capitals, with an impressive cultural, scientific and economic scene, attracting politicians and business travellers, start-ups and artists, tourists and connoisseurs from around the globe . The city is also emerging as the centre of German healthcare . Berlin has a long neurological history . It was here that Moritz Heinrich Romberg wrote the ‘Lehrbuch der Nervenkrankheiten des Menschen’, a frontier breaking mid-19th century textbook which is seen as the foundation of modern neurology . Almost 25 years after the fall of the wall, the once divided city of Berlin today symbolizes peaceful revolution, the overthrow of outworn systems and the venture into a new political era . The 1st Congress of the EAN will also write European neurological history . EAN is the joint subsequent organisation of the EFNS (European Federation of Neurological Societies) and ENS (European Neurological Society), and thereby the first united voice of European Neurology . This founding act was celebrated on June 3rd, 2014 at the Joint Congress of European Neurology in Istanbul . The first congress of this new Society will be celebrated in the united Berlin . BERLIN, GERMANY, 20 – 23 JUNE, 2015 BERLIN, GERMANY, 20 – 23 JUNE, 2015 IV FINAL PROGRAMME FINAL PROGRAMME WELCOMING WORDS 2015 We have a record number of pre-registrations and more than 2000 submitted abstracts . We will have 8 symposia, 33 teaching courses and overall 250 lectures and 300 speakers . The city cube will be an ideal place to discuss new developments, exchange practice hints from all over Europe and finally meet friends . The EAN Congress in Berlin will provide the ideal platform for continuing education in all fields of neurology, covering a broad spectrum of topics with state-of-the-art lectures by renowned experts . The EAN is dedicated to providing the highest quality of continuing medical education and to opening professional education opportunities . We are deeply grateful to the joint Programme Committee and its chairpersons Jacques L . De Reuck and Gustave Moonen and the new programme committee with the chair Paul Boon and the many people helping us to organise this major event . We are looking forward to welcoming you to Berlin in 2015! Sincerely yours, Günther Deuschl Wolfgang H . Oertel PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL CONVENOR EUROPEAN ACADEMY PAST PRESIDENT GERMAN OF NEUROLOGY SOCIETY OF NEUROLOGY BERLIN, GERMANY, 20 – 23 JUNE, 2015 BERLIN, GERMANY, 20 – 23 JUNE, 2015 V V FINAL PROGRAMME ABOUT BERLIN 2015 ABOUT BERLIN Berlin, the capital of Germany, represents with its population of 3 .4 million people Germany’s largest city . It is located in north- eastern Germany on the river Spree and is the centre of the Berlin-Brandenburg metropolitan region . Due to its location in the European plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate . About one third of the city's area consists of forests, gar- dens, parks, rivers and lakes . The city has been an imperial capital of the Kingdom of Prussia, the German Empire, the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich . After World War II, the city, along with the German state, was divided into East Berlin and West Berlin, (surrounded by the Berlin Wall from 1961 to 1989) . After the German reunification in 1990, Berlin was again designated as the capital of all Germany . Berlin is a world city of culture, science, media and politics and is hosting 147 foreign embassies . The city is also well known for its renowned universities, research institutes, orchestras, operas, museums, and celebrities; as well as for its festivals, diverse architecture, nightlife, contemporary arts, public transportation networks, and an extremely high quality of living .

Additionally, cells, antigens, and other factors exit the brain into the periphery via damaged blood–brain barrier cells, glymphatic transport mechanisms, and lymphatic vessels, which dramatically influence the systemic immune response and lead to complex neuroimmune communi- cation. As a result, the immunological response after stroke is a highly dynamic event that involves communication between multiple organ systems and cell types, with significant consequences on not only the initial stroke tissue injury but long-term recovery in the CNS. In this review, we discuss the complex immunological and physiological interactions that occur after stroke with a focus on how the peripheral immune system and CNS communicate to regulate post-stroke brain homeostasis. First, Citation: Choi, Y.H.; Laaker, C.; Hsu, we discuss the post-stroke immune cascade across different contexts as well as homeostatic regulation M.; Cismaru, P.; Sandor, M.; Fabry, Z.

  • Neurosurgeons and Neurocritical Care
    American Association of Neurological Surgeons and Congress of Neurological Surgeons POSITION STATEMENT on Neurosurgeons and Neurocritical Care Summary Statement Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-approved neurosurgical residency training includes critical care management of patients with neurological disorders. Neurosurgeons are fully trained in neurointensive care by reason of training program requirements, and upon completion of training are competent to independently manage and direct treatment of patients with neurological disorders requiring critical care. Additional training in critical care is optional, but not necessary for neurosurgeons to manage neurocritical care patients following residency training. Certification in neurological surgery is through the American Board of Neurological Surgery (ABNS), and includes certification for critical care of patients with neurological conditions. No other certification is required for ABNS diplomats for privileges in neurological surgery or neurocritical care management. Additional certification by organizations unrecognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) is unnecessary for ensuring neurosurgeon training, competency, or credentialing in intensive or critical care. Patient Access to Neurosurgeon Care in Critical Care Settings The American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) (http://www.aans.org) and the Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS) (http://www.cns.org) are professional scientific and educational associations with over 7,400 members worldwide. All active members of the AANS are board certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery (ABNS), the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, or the Mexican Council of Neurological Surgery, AC. The AANS and the CNS are dedicated to advancing the specialty of neurological surgery in order to provide the highest quality of neurosurgical care to the public.

Describe the Review Committee’s rationale for this revision: The Review Committee, in collaboration with the Review Committees for Neurology and Neurological Surgery, determined that while this area of study goes by many different names in practice, the current name of endovascular surgical neuroradiology is not inclusive as it does not encompass the intervention portion of the subspecialty. 2. How will the proposed requirement or revision improve resident/fellow education, patient safety, and/or patient care quality? N/A 3. How will the proposed requirement or revision impact continuity of patient care? N/A 4. Will the proposed requirement or revision necessitate additional institutional resources (e.g., facilities, organization of other services, addition of faculty members, financial support; volume and variety of patients), if so, how? N/A 5. How will the proposed revision impact other accredited programs? N/A Requirement #: Int.C. Requirement Revision (significant change only): The program shall offer one year of graduate medical education in endovascular surgical neuroradiology. (Core)* The educational program in neuroendovascular intervention must be at least 24 months in length. (Core) 1. Describe the Review Committee’s rationale for this revision: This major revision reflects efforts to align the requirements with the Committee on Advanced Subspecialty Training (CAST) requirements for neuroendovascular surgery. The CAST requirements emphasize a need for greater proficiency in the outpatient evaluation and care of pre- and post-procedure endovascular patients.

It within this article. has been demonstrated that adults with acute neurologic conditions who are treated in a specialized No commercial support or neurocritical care unit have reduced morbidity and mortality, as well as decreased length of stay, lower sponsorship was provided for this educational activity. costs, and reduced need for neurosurgical procedures. In pediatrics, neurocritical care has focused on various primary and secondary neurologic conditions complicating critical care that also contribute to mortality, morbidity, and duration of hospitalization. However, the concept of neurocritical care as a subspecialty in pediatric practice is still evolving, and evidence demonstrating improved outcomes is lacking.3–5 In the neonatal intensive care nursery, neurocritical care is also evolving as a subspecialty concept to address both supportive and preventive care and optimize neurologic outcomes for an at-risk neonatal patient population. To enhance effectiveness of this care approach, nurses must be prepared to appropriately recognize acute changes in neurologic status, implement protocols that specifically address neurologic conditions, and carefully monitor neurologic status to help prevent secondary injury.

The following sections involve ‘neuroanatomy and pathophysiology’, ‘(non)invasive neuromonitoring’, ‘general intensive care issues specifically applied to the neuroinjured patient’, ‘(evidence- based) management of specific neurointensive care diagnoses (e.g. subarachnoid haemorrhage, traumatic brain injury)’ and ‘situations of special interest’. The neuroanatomy and pathology chapters cover the basics very well and are richly illustrated. The neuromonitoring chapters provide a good overview although a more detailed discussion with regard to the current status and usefulness of different monitors for clinical practice would have been valuable.
