12th EPNS congress 2017 app for iPhone and iPad

France will be welcoming the prestigious European Paediatric Neurology Society conference at the Cité Internationale of the city of LYON on June 20-24, 2017. The main theme for the 2017 meeting will be: Lifelong course of diseases of the child’s nervous system.

Indeed the prognosis and outcome of diseases of the child’s nervous system and their transition to adolescence and adulthood represent important challenges for the family, the patient, health care professionals, the pharmaceutical industry and national authorities. A growing number of neurologists are involved in the follow-up of patients with neurological diseases revealed in childhood or even in infancy or the neonatal period.Tight interactions between neuropaediatricians and adult neurologists are mandatory for defining optimum lifelong care management strategies.

This prestigious congress will cover, both in plenary and parallel sessions, the following major topics: epilepsy and tuberous sclerosis, behavioural and sleep disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism and intellectual disability, central nervous system inflammatory disorders as well as inherited metabolic diseases.
