The 8th Annual Meeting of the ERN EpiCARE will take place in Salzburg from June 10th to 13th 2025. It will feature a rich programme of workshops led by our various working groups, offering a platform for in-depth exchange, strategic planning, and knowledge sharing across disciplines. The General Assembly will allow us to present to the Board of Network representatives the core of our past 12 months activities.
We would like to share with you the first version of the program for our upcoming Annual Meeting. On the first day, we’ll have the face-to-face Executive Committee meeting and an Invited Scientific Lecture by Pr. Matthew WALKER. Wednesday is reserved for the General Assembly, with representatives from EpiCARE members, partners, and patient advocates. In the afternoon, EpiCARE Working Group Sessions begin, continuing on Thursday. A “Training Workshop on Genetic Test Prescription & Interpretation for Early-Career Neurologists” will run in parallel. And on Friday, the “Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome Guidelines Group” will take place.
You will soon receive a more detailed version of the programme, as well as confirmation of your accommodation bookings, and the links for those of you joining online.
