Prof. Günther Deuschl, President of the EAN, also welcomed everybody. He highlighted some recent important studies published by European researchers, the celebration of the Brain Prize in Europe, and some EAN achievements such as the guidelines project. The EAN is also particularly interested in assessing the burden of neurological diseases in Europe.

Recently, EAN held elections of the Scientific Panel Management groups. All Panel Members - institutional that are nominated by a national society, and individual - were invited to send in their applications. The Scientific Committee received altogether 163 applications, from 30 different countries (59 female and 104 male applicants).

The year of 1949 was a celebrating year for Neurosciences in Portugal, since our professor of Neurology Egas Moniz was awarded the Nobel Prize of Medicine and Physiology, an important recognition of his neuroscience research. This was a mark that very much inspired the interest of our medical school on neurosciences.
