The European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC) for international stroke specialists is about the latest clinical trials and developments in all areas of stroke management, treatment and prevention. This year´s conference, the 4th European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC 2018), took place here in Gothenburg on 16-18 May and gathered more than 4000 delegates at the Swedish Trade Fair in Gothenburg.
The fact that the conference was held here shows that Western Sweden’s stroke research is at the international front end. The conference is interdisciplinary- not only for medical doctors specialized in areas such as neurology, internal medicine, geriatrics, neurorehabilitation, neurosurgery and radiology, but also for a number of other professions required for treatment and prevention of stroke, such as nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, logopedians and neuropsychologists.
