PREVIEW: Neurology 2016: leading edge neurology for the practising clinician

Conference details: 31 March – 1 April, 2016

This annual course for Consultants and Clinical Trainees in Neurology and other neuroscience specialities is designed to provide a comprehensive update on the practical hospital management of common neurological diseases, with an emphasis on modern techniques and therapies. The course aims to be didactic, but also entertaining and informative, and has now become a yearly highlight of the British neurology calendar.

In 2016 the annual Nobel Awardee’s Lecture will be given by Professor John O’Keefe, winner of the 2014 Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine. There are six plenary sessions, a CPC, a video session on sleep disorders, the Battle of the Geraints debate, and an extensive course book containing background materials.

There is also a half day, pre-course symposium entitled: ‘Cramming for the exit exam’ on Wednesday 30th March 2016 for Clinical Trainees and Research Fellows in Neurology and associated specialities. The session covers areas which typically are found difficult and comes with sample exam questions, sent in advance, and with a range of other course materials. 15 points of CPD have been applied for.
