Addressing gender-related issues and bias in the prevention and treatment of neurological conditions

Addressing gender-related issues and bias in the prevention and treatment of neurological conditions

Join a hybrid event on Addressing gender-related issues and bias in the prevention and treatment of neurological conditions that will take place on Tuesday, 29 November from 13:00 to 15:00 CET.

The event is hosted by the MEP Interest Group on Brain, Mind and Pain (BMP) – an initiative of the European Federation of Neurological Associations (EFNA) and Pain Alliance Europe (PAE).

Gender-related issues and bias can have a negative impact on women’s health including needs being overlooked, conditions being under-diagnosed/ misdiagnosed and delays in treatment.

Hosted in the European Parliament by MEP Sirpa Pietikäinen (EPP, FI), high-profile speakers, including healthcare professionals, patient representatives, policymakers and academics, will lead the discussions.

You can register here before 21 November 2022. Please note that due to the limited capacity of the room, participants will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. However, you can register here to access the event’s live-stream instead.

Emerging issues on targeted drug delivery – event 28 November 2022

The ANGIE project aims to change the way we practice medicine by developing micro-robots for localised, targeted drug delivery to unblock blood vessels and fight stroke from within.

This ground-breaking project is funded by the EU and aims to develop nano-surgeons that will enter the body to treat blood clots.

Questions around issues related to communication, ethics, law, policy, and education will be discussed before the newly developed technology is released. This online event will discuss new market opportunities in the pharmaceutical industries.

Join the meeting via Zoom on 28 November 2022, 16.00 – 18.00 CET.

There are three interesting sessions covering key issues faced by people living with stroke: getting back to work; fatigue and getting active. Chaired by Dr Carina Persson (Sweden), Professor Avril Drummond (England), and Juliet Bouverie (England) respectively. Each session will include a mix of presentations from stroke survivors and academically active speakers in the field of life after stroke.

‘There are many issues for people after a stroke including getting back to a good quality of life that is worth living. This event will focus on three areas that are really important to help those living with stroke get their lives back on track. This event is for anyone with an interest in life after stroke and keen to improve services and care post stroke and rehabilitation.’
