It is a great pleasure to introduce the recipients of the Fellowship 2014 (in alphabetical order):

As Julia Scheidl, EFNS Staff member for almost 5 years is on maternity leave, the EFNS has hired Marion Russ and Claudia Schalk to help us execute our ever-growing daily tasks at the Headoffice.

Through the EFNS fellowship, I was able to carry out my project “Cerebral ischaemia measured using MRI spectroscopy (cerebral ischaemia study)” at the Acute Stroke research unit, Western Infirmary, Glasgow, UK chaired by Prof. Kennedy Lees. Doing this research from an interdisciplinary perspective has been a novel approach and I’m grateful I was able to begin my involvement with EFNS Scientific Fellowship at this stage in my career.

For a period of 6 months, supported by the EFNS educational fellowship, I spent an amazing and enriching period of my life at the Child Neurology Department, Hospital San Joan De Deu, Barcelona, Spain, with Dr. A. Garcia Cazorla’s research team.
