| Summary: | The European Association of Neuroscience Nurses (EANN) held its eighth quadrennial congress in Reykjavík, Iceland at the beginning of June. In its 28 years the EANN has grown from a largely western European organization to one which is reaching out to members in Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean and the Baltic. Its main meeting open to all neuroscience nurses is the quadrennial congress. It was an excellent opportunity for neuroscience nurses working in a wide variety of areas associated with the neurologically disabled to come together from all over Europe and the wider world. Present at this year's congress were specialists from units dealing with specific diseases such as stroke, Huntington's and Parkinson's disease, and neuro-oncology. Others had a more generic role across a variety of neurological disorders but were specialized by the stage of the disorder such as neurointensive care, neurosurgery, general neurology or neurorehabilitation. |
