6th Migrating Course on Epilepsy

The ILAE  "6th Migrating Course on Epilepsy" will be held in Porto, Portugal, from 10 -17 June 2012.The Portuguese League Against Epilepsy will organize the event and outline the scientific program, in close collaboration with the Commission on European Affairs of the ILAE.

 This is a comprehensive course combining basic and clinical epileptology. It is aimed primarily to younger doctors (< 45yrs). The teaching staff comprises european epileptologists with widely recognized scientific and educational skills. The working model will be interactive, with emphasis on work sessions in small groups, and participants are encouraged to bring specific cases to discuss their own clinical experience.

We would be thankful if you could transmit this initiative to the members of your chapter, and perhaps announce the event at your chapter’s website (an english version is available at http://www.epilepsia.pt/lpce/6th-migrating-course-on-epilepsy.

A limited number of bursaries will be available from the course organization. It would be excellent if your chapter could perhaps support deserving applications from your country, reducing the costs of participation for those not contemplated with the course bursary.

The first announcement of the 6th Migrating Course can be found attached and is also available for download at the LPCE website (http://www.epilepsia.pt/lpce/6th-migrating-course-on-epilepsy).

Looking forward to receiving applications from your country, we send our best regards,
