The new EAN President-Elect highlights some hopes and objectives for the future of the EAN, including updates on the work of the Covid-19 Task Force and the Coordinating Panel on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Neurology.

Our research paper of the month presents the results of the ‘SWIFT direct’ trial, a randomised, open-label, blinded-outcome trial, aiming to investigate whether thrombectomy alone would be non-inferior to thrombectomy plus intravenous alteplase in patients with acute ischaemic stroke due to anterior circulation large vessel occlusion.

On the final day of EAN 2022, the EAN presidency was handed over to the new president, Prof. Paul Boon, chairman and senior full professor of neurology at Ghent University Hospital and Director of 4Brain at Ghent University.

Our research paper of the month is a meta-analysis investigating the influence of intraventricular fibrinolysis on functional outcomes in patients with intracerebral haemorrhage.

Our authors of the month conducted this study in which COVID-19 patients with neurological symptoms and cognitive impairments, underwent DMI in the subacute stage of the disease.

Following a wait of three years, EAN President, Prof. Claudio Bassetti, was finally able to welcome the neurology community to a face-to-face EAN Annual Congress at the EAN 2022 Opening Session on Saturday evening.
