"Create - Imagine - Inspire - Discover" Please join us for the 13th Quadrennial Congress of the World Federation Neuroscience Nurses to be held in Darwin, Australia. It will prove to be an event to remember in Australia's "*Top End- a place like no other.*" - Abstracts Open: 1st April, 2020 - Abstracts Close: 1st November, 2020 - Authors Notified: 30th November, 2020 - Registration Opens: December, 2020
Just like this past year – presentations will be short (15-20 minutes) and focus on neuro-nurse-research. The symposium will cover the research spectrum and include 1. Planned proposals and ideas 2. Works in progress 3. Works in data analysis or manuscript preparation phase 4. Completed research studies We are looking for speakers. Unfortunately, we cannot afford to cover expenses nor provide honoraria. If you or a nurse you know has work – this will be a great venue. We will be sending out a call for poster abstracts (we hope you keep this in mind for students and trainees with research work in neuro). Just as the symposium covers works in progress and completed works, posters will be allowed to include WIPs and Completed studies.
The EANN and BANN welcome abstract submissions on any aspect of neuroscience nursing or related subjects to advance nursing care, management, research or education. In order to plan the programme the abstract will be allocated to one of the followings topic areas: Neurology Neurosurgery Neuro-Rehabilitation Neurocritical care Neuro Paediatrics Neuro-Oncology Neuro radiology Neuro vascular Neuro trauma and emergency care Spinal Education and training Quality improvement projects Abstracts may focus on research or clinical studies, literature review, case studies or practice development.

Nurses from across the US and abroad converged in San Diego, California to celebrate the 50th anniversary of AANN. In 1968, visionary leader Agnes Marshall Walker formed an organization of specialized neuroscience nurses with a typewriter, a few dollars and unlimited determination. Now 50 years later, AANN has more than 5000 members and the celebration and commitment to neuroscience nursing continues.

It's time to start planning your trip to Manchester, England! The EANN congress website for the congress is now open and accepting abstracts for their next meeting scheduled March 19-22, 2019. This congress will be hosted by BANN in collaboration with the Society of British Neurosurgeons expanding your opportunities for professional networking and outstanding education. It's definitely on my calendar and I hope to see you there! www.neuro2019.org

A team of international scientists think they have found a way to identify patients at risk for Alzheimers Disease-and all through a simple blood test. We have known for years that AD is the result of a build-up of amyloid proteins in the brain. These proteins destroy neurons. For healthy people, these proteins are broken down and released into the blood stream for elimination. For people with AD, they stay put. Taking amyloid levels in healthy people versus those with AD should something startling...The amyloid blood levels are higher in healthy people...So measuring amyloid serum levels may provide insight into those with higher levels of amyloid in their brain (AD).

We are pleased to welcome the Neurocritical Care Society (NCS) nurses as our newest members of the World Federation of Neuroscience Nurses. NCS is an international professional organization focused on providing and advocating for the highest quality of care for patients with critical neurological illness throughout the world.
NCS also offers training and certification in emergency neurological life support (ENLS) and held a course at our recent congress in Croatia. We welcome you as members!

With the help of Dubrovnik Sun, WFNN held an outstanding congress in the beautiful city of Opatija in Croatia. International speakers, great food, beautiful hotels and an even better coastline.
Our day trips to the old cities were well organized and thoughtful. Our tour guides spoke of Croatian history, exposing the group to the local cuisine and wines as we meandered the streets.
The Congo line, singing by Stephen, our own WFNN Elvis Presley topped off the fun Gala dinner.
Nights to remember.
