The 16th Congress of the European Federation of Neurological Societies (EFNS) will provide a platform for specialists in neurology to study current research, clinical practices and treatments. A rich scientific programme features presentations by world experts, CME credits, focused workshops, and teaching courses. The congress also supports young neurologists by offering awards and bursaries. In-line with the aim of the EFNS organization, this leading neurology event aims to advance the development of neurology as an independent specialty caring for all patients with a disease of the nervous system.
