A 3 DAY NEUROCRITICAL CARE EXTRAVAGANZA IN SYDNEY!

14th November: Neurocritical Care Symposium

15th / 16th November: First ever ENLS course in Australia

BRAIN: A Neurocritical Care Symposium

Sydney | 14th November 2018

A one day symposium aimed at critical care health professionals who look after critically ill patients with neurological problems.

An international faculty will deliver a range of talks, debates and panel discussions covering a wide scope of neurocritical care topics. There will be updates, insights from experts, and no shortage of controversy.

Our speakers include intensivists, neurosurgeons, interventional neuroradiologists, clinical trialists, neurologists and neuro-rehabilitation specialists.

Eat, drink, be merry!

Registration cost includes breakfast, lunch, morning and afternoon tea and post-symposium networking drinks and canapés.

Location, location, location

We’re hosting the symposium at the Kolling Auditorium. It’s a few km from the city centre just next to St Leonards train station. Lots of accommodation options nearby.

Networking Night out

After the symposium we’re having a evening networking event at the nearby Small Bar in Crows Nest, with drinks and food included in your rego ticket price. Great chance to meet like-minded people.
