Objectif "Epilepsy is a brain disorder that is characterised by recurrent episodes of cerebral dysfunction, that is, seizures which are caused by excessive electrical discharges of nerve cells. It is one of the most common serious disorders of the brain.Six million people in Europe have Epilepsy and approximately 300,000 new cases are diagnosed each year.The Epilepsy Research Forum 2013 will seek to contribute to the debate on the coordination of research at national and European Union level as well and to focus on research achievements made to date and the opportunities for further advances.By bringing together a wide spectrum of stakeholders it is hoped that national and European epilepsy research networks will be better coordinated and targeted.With an expected attendance of 500 stakeholders, the Conference will stimulate debate on, in the first instance, promoting research into improving the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy. The Conference programme will also aim at improving awareness and reducing stigma, in what will essentially be a multifaceted conference engaging clinicians and patients alike.The specific objectives are:-to promote and discuss the opportunities for coordinated, targeted and precise innovative research efforts that would build on the significant gains made by basic and clinical research in the past-the 2013 Forum, whilst aimed primarily at facilitating research opportunities in epilepsy, will also seek to address the optimal standards of care for people with epilepsy which are still unequally distributed in European Union" Programme(s) FP7-HEALTH - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Health Thème(s) HEALTH.2012.4.1-3 - Support for Presidency events: Organisation of supporting actions and events related to the Presidency of the European Union Appel à propositions FP7-HEALTH-2012-INNOVATION-1 Voir d’autres projets de cet appel Régime de financement CSA-SA - Support actions Coordinateur CHANCEL LIMITED Contribution de l’UE € 100 000,00 Adresse PRIORY HALL 7 CO STILLORGAN Irlande Voir sur la carte Type d’activité Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Contact administratif Eoin Sheanon (Mr.) Liens Contacter l’organisation Opens in new window Site web Opens in new window Coût total Aucune donnée Participants (2) Trier par ordre alphabétique Trier par contribution de l’UE Tout développer Tout réduire INTERNATIONAL BUREAU FOR EPILEPSY INC NON PROFIT CORPORATION États-Unis Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse 15TH STREET 1015 NW SUITE 1000 20005 WASHINGTON DC Voir sur la carte Type d’activité Other Contact administratif Ann Little (Ms.) Liens Contacter l’organisation Opens in new window Site web Opens in new window Coût total Aucune donnée INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE AGAINST EPILEPSY États-Unis Contribution de l’UE Aucune donnée Adresse NORTH MAIN STREET 342 06117 2507 WEST HARTFORD CT Voir sur la carte Type d’activité Other Contact administratif Emilio Perucca (Prof.) Liens Contacter l’organisation Opens in new window Site web Opens in new window Coût total Aucune donnée
