Asia Pacific Stroke Conference 2024

25–28 September 2024

Adelaide Convention Centre
Adelaide, SA

A welcome from The Australian and New Zealand Stroke Organisation and the Asia Pacific Stroke Organisation

We would like to extend a warm invitation to join us in Adelaide in September 2024, for the Asia Pacific Stroke Conference, hosted jointly by the Australian and New Zealand Stroke Organisation (previously Stroke Society of Australasia). Building on the previous success of our 2 previous combined meetings (Cairns 2009 and Brisbane 2016), the theme for the 2024 conference is "Transcending Borders" bridging the borders between countries, between research and implementation, between pre-hospital, hospital care and recovery, between medical, neuro-interventional and surgical specialties, between medical and non-medical professions and between health professionals and consumers.

Our vibrant program provides a variety of cutting edge plenary, original research and 'hands-on' workshops across the continuum of care. We have already locked in key international guest Speakers:

  • Professors Raul Nogueira and Chris Kellner from the US,
  • Professor Michael Tymianski from Canada,
  • Professor Liping Liu from China, and
  • Professor Jeyaraj Pandian (president elect of the World Stroke Organisation) from India.
     

Their plenary sessions will be supplemented by a wide range of sessions delivered by local and regional stroke experts including Professors Bruce Campbell, Craig Anderson, Bernard Yan, Stephen Davis, Anna Ranta and Sandy Middleton.

Our meeting will take place within the beautiful Riverbank Central Adelaide precinct. Adelaide was recently rated 'Australia's coolest City by the Wall St Journal, and has a vibrant sporting, arts and cultural scene. Including beautiful urban parklands, a rich indigenous heritage and diverse food and wine options, being in close proximity to the Penfolds winery cellar door, as well as further world renowned wine regions (the Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale). Adelaide provides easy access to Australian nature and wildlife, both locally and close by in iconic Kangaroo island - ranked Number 2 globally in the Lonely Planet's Top Regions Hotlist.

This conference will showcase the Asia Pacific region's exemplary research and clinical leadership, and provide rich networking experiences within and between nations. We hope to inspire both sponsors and attendees to 'transcend borders’ locally, nationally and internationally.

Please do join us in September 2024 in Adelaide.
