Welcome to the Annual Meeting 2024

Dear members, dear colleagues

We are delighted to invite you to the Annual Meeting 2024 of the Swiss Neurological Society (SNS) in Basel. This year we are very pleased to welcome the two guest societies Swiss League Against Epilepsy (SEL) and Swiss Society for Cognitive and Behavioural Neurology (SSCBN).

The motto of the meeting is: Quo vadis neuroinflammation? From pathophysiologic advances to novel treatment strategies. The meeting will feature invited experts from across Switzerland and abroad discussing ongoing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and advances in neurology and providing insights on cutting edge neurological research with a focus on neuroimmunological diseases including diagnostic and therapeutic advances. Further, there will be ample opportunities for oral and poster presentations of invited abstracts including a platform for presentations by young neurologists in training.

The 4th Symposium Interprofessional Neurology: NeuroCare will again be an integral part of the program. Additionally, you can look forward to an interesting industry exhibition by our partners and sponsors, who will be presenting their latest products and exchanging ideas with you.
