XXV World Congress of Neurology (WCN 2021)
 |
Rome, Italy | 3 - 7 October 2021
The XXV Biennial World Congress of Neurology (WCN 2021) took place on 3-7 October 2021 and for the first time ever it was held as a fully virtual event. Organized with the support of The Italian Society of Neurology (SIN), WCN 2021 gathered over 4400 participants from 120 countries, 1300 of whom coming from Italy.
Rome's icon – The Colosseum, became the venue for the virtual WCN 2021. The fully personalized interactive congress platform allowed the attendees to experience the arena of the ancient amphitheater like never before and provided them with access to plenty of scientific sessions, networking opportunities and industry materials.
This year's congress was held under the theme "Inspired by the past to build the future of Neurology" and brought together more than 270 first-class speakers and experts, who discussed the latest advancements in the field. The scientific program consisted of more than 150 scientific sessions presented in different formats – plenary lectures, scientific sessions, teaching courses, free communication sessions and regional symposia, addressing a wide range of neurology-related topics.
A record number of 24 teams signed up for this year's Tournament of the Minds, which once again provided an educational and entertaining experience, integrating various aspects of neurology.
All sessions, including those that were streamed live, can now be viewed on demand until January 7, 2022.
