Welcome Message from KSS
| Dear colleagues and friends, |
|
On behalf of the Korean Stroke Society, we are very excited to hereby invite you to International Conference STROKE UPDATE 2018 & 1st Australian-Korean Joint Stroke Congress (ICSU 2018 & 1st AKJSC) which will take place in Seoul, South Korea, from September 13 to 15, 2018. ICSU, which focuses on the latest research in the various aspects of stroke, has been held biennially since 2012. ICSU has provided participants with the various networking opportunities as many well renowned international speakers have participated at the ICSU. We have also held joint sessions with the Nordic Stroke Society, which will continue in ICSU 2018. During ICSU 2016, we had a joint conference with the 8th International Conference on Intracranial Atherosclerosis, and this year we are proud to launch the 1st AKJSC in partnership with the ICSU 2018. AKJSC is a result of the collaboration and friendship between the members of the Australian Stroke Academy and the Korean Stroke Society. AKJSC will continue to strengthen scientific collaboration and friendship between stroke experts from two countries that are at the forefront of developing and expanding in the field of stroke. For ICSU 2018 & 1st AKJSC, the Scientific Program committee has prepared exciting sessions of the stroke prevention, prehospital management, acute stroke imaging and IV thrombolysis, endovascular therapy, recent clinical trials as well as plenary lectures. The debate session will provide further opportunities for active discussion on currently hot issues. We have no doubt that participants will have a very pleasant experience in terms of learning contemporary knowledge on stroke and providing a networking opportunity for the community. We look forward to welcoming you to Seoul, the capital city of South Korea, a city that beautifully balances the traditional and modern, and where mountains and river flow harmoniously through the center of the city. Appropriately, you may even enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Han River from the venue, Vista Walkerhill Hotel. |
