Here are the presentation titles. That's too much to discuss in one thread, isn't it? But look at the spread of topics and the sheer numbers of doctors currently investigating neurovascular disorders. It is very encouraging. There are 12 abstracts also linked on the ISNVD page that are available as pdfs. Here is the program book that discusses these presentations, starting on page 5 of the pdf: http://www.isnvdconference.org/program/ ... -book.htmlKeynote Presentation - The Role of Blood Vessels and Inflammation in the Pathogenesis of Neurological Disorders
