Why attend the 13th European Conference on Epilepsy and Society

The 13th European Conference on Epilepsy & Society (ECES)

 takes place in Ljubljana, Slovenia from Wednesday 28th to Friday 30th August 2013.

The Epilepsy and Society conference is the only IBE regional conference that is devised solely for the benefit of People With Epilepsy (PWE), Chapters and lay organisations. The conference aims to inform People With Epilepsy and their families, as well as those working in the field of epilepsy about new developments in epilepsy treatment, associated cognitive dysfunction related to epilepsies and the psychosocial implications that derive from this common brain disorder and, of course, to provide solutions.

The theme of the 13th ECES is “Break down the barriers and stand up for epilepsy”, which analyses different aspects of living with epilepsy. The main objective of this programme is to reduce the stigma by discussing issues associated with epilepsy. During the conference, delegates will have many opportunities to network and participate in discussion groups, parallel sessions and other programmed activities.

Above all, this meeting will facilitate communication and exchange of ideas among people with epilepsy and professionals in the field right across Europe.
