The 11th Annual UC San Diego Stroke Conference, presented by the UC San Diego Stroke Center, offers an update on stroke patient care and research for neurologists, primary care physicians, cardiologists, vascular and neurosurgeons, registered nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, physical and occupational therapists and other health care providers.

The course will provide cutting edge information for practitioners in current clinical practice and present future possibilities in the treatment of stroke. Topics that will be discussed include: stroke care in the ED, laser therapy in stroke, interventional neuroradiology, carotid stenting, transient ischemic attacks, stroke in the young, stroke prevention and recovery from stroke.

The faculty includes outstanding physicians and researchers in stroke care. Through education, we can improve patient care and help bridge the gap between knowledge and practice to improve outcomes.
