WELCOME MESSAGE
WELCOME TO
iCure Stroke
Dear Colleagues,
After another meeting in İstanbul, we would like to thank all participants for joining us face-to-face meeting program that was completed successfully. 13 CME points have been obtained for attendee as the good proof of the educational and scientific content. 290 registered participants from 36 countries. We received great incentives to further develop this special education and exchange platform. We believe our motto "Bridge Therapies and Communities” is more relevant now than ever before.
MASTERING COMPLEXITY THROUGH SIMPLIFICATION
In this unprecedented context, iCureStroke will fix its goal as defining the essential focus in ischemic stroke service. We aim to provide a simple, practical approach and cutting-edge educational content, for attendees to go back with easily applicable take-home messages.
We decided to re-iterate iCureStroke as a «traditional» on-site meeting in 2023 because we believe that a format with real - as opposed to virtual - contact is what impacts intense learning. Debates are difficult, if not impossible to stimulate during webinars. We believe that emulation of ideas and generation of consensus is possible only when inspired individuals exchange ideas in face-to-face discussions. Hence, we will organize a real event, taking all protective measures that may be relevant at the time the meeting will be taking place.
We look forward to meeting you again in İstanbul in 9-11 August 2023.
