8th World Stroke Congress

October 10-13, 2012 Brasilia, Brazil

The 8th World Stroke Congress will be held in Brasilia October 10 to 13, 2012. This is the first time that the World Stroke Congress is held in Latin America.

The scope of the World Stroke Congress is broader than other international stroke conferences: besides first class presentations on research findings, overviews of current state of the art, lectures of excellence, and teaching courses there will also be a strong focus on parts of the chain of care like primary prevention, organization of services and rehabilitation. Global issues will be much addressed including global burden of stroke, specific features of stroke in low to middle income countries and priority settings when resources are low. A substantial part of the programme will focus on nursing and multidisciplinary networking. Another substantial part is directed to stroke support organizations.
