ICNC2016 - Call for symposium proposals

We kindly invite you to submit proposals for lunch symposia, covering specialized child neurology topics, for the 14th ICNC 2016, in Amsterdam.

The congress theme is "Bridging Worlds; Child Neurology from a Global Perspective"

These symposia will enable a group of expert speakers to present current knowledge or new developments in well delineated areas of pediatric neurology in depth, reaching a targeted audience. Sessions will last 90 minutes, including a short introduction by the chairperson and 3 presentations – 20 minutes each – with ample time for interactive discussion. On choosing speakers, consideration should be given to geographical representation. Presentations are expected to comprise not only high-tech advances in the field, but also clinically relevant aspects of global importance. Proposals for symposia covering international collaborative research networks are particularly welcome.

Chairpersons should realize that the organizing committee unfortunately cannot waive registration fees, nor reimburse travel or accommodation expenses, for symposium speakers. It is therefore advised that proposers of symposia should check that speakers are willing to be put forward on this basis.

Please submit your proposal online (http://icnc2016.org), including the names and affiliations of chairperson(s) and three speakers, the title of their presentations, as well as a short summary of the session. The deadline for submission is August 1st 2015.

We look forward to your proposals and hope to welcome you all in Amsterdam, for the 14th ICNC, May 1st- 5th 2016.

On behalf of the organizing and scientific committees,

Michèl Willemsen
Chair of the ICNC 2016 scientific committee
Helen Cross
Chair of the ICNA scientific committee
Kees Braun
Chair of the ICNC 2016 organizing committee
