2nd European Stroke Organisation Conference
CCIB – Centre de Convencions Internacional de Barcelona #
BARCELONA, SPAINDear Friends and Colleagues,
It is my pleasure to invite you to the 2nd European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC 2016), which will be held in Barcelona, Spain, on 10 -12 May, 2016.
Last year the European Stroke Organisation (ESO) took the courageous decision to establish its own stroke conference. There were strong democratic and compliance reasons behind our decision, and there appeared to be powerful support from scientific colleagues. What we did not fully anticipate was the overwhelming demonstration of practical support that arose from every quarter. Societies in our field - WSO, APSO, ESC, ESMINT, ESNR – declared their alignment with ESO.
ESOC 2015 had over 1400 abstracts submitted and we were being asked to take late breaking trials – of outstanding quality – right through the final weeks. At least two simultaneous NEJM publications were coordinated with our large trials session. Delegates have indicated their commitment: our first meeting attracted nearly 2,700 registrations.
For ESOC 2016 the Programme Committee is creating a comprehensive series of keynote lectures, symposia, teaching courses and various workshops, covering the entire field of stroke management, prevention and recovery. You will have a unique opportunity to network with colleagues from all over the world. These interactions enhance research and career development. You will be exposed to a variety of interactive educational sessions in a stimulating environment, and you will learn about the latest scientific research and developments in the field.
We look forward to welcoming you to the attractive and modern city of Barcelona and encourage you to evaluate the meeting as an opportunity to update your knowledge.
I look forward to welcoming you, with warm greetings, to Barcelona.
Kennedy Lees
President, European Stroke Organisation

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION RULES
Abstracts must be original and must not be or have been published, nor presented at any international meeting, prior to ESOC 2016. If you submit a manuscript on your work before presentation at ESOC 2016, you should agree with the journal editor that it will not be released online prior to the date of presentation.
The Committee will endeavour to schedule abstracts according to authors' preferences but reserves the right to decide on the final form of presentation.
The presenting author is expected to attend the Conference and present their abstract. Presenting authors of abstracts must be registered participants.
The presenting author is required to ensure that all co-authors are aware of the content of the abstract before submission to the Secretariat.
Ordinarily, only abstracts with results will be accepted for review. Results may be preliminary, and the final results can be updated in the presentation or poster. However, for clinical trials that will complete in time to release results in a late-breaking session, authors are encouraged to submit a placeholder abstract outlining the sample size and analyses to be presented, an updated abstract may be submitted until the print deadline of 20 March, 2016.
All abstracts must be submitted and presented in clear English with accurate grammar and spelling of a quality suitable for publication. If you need help, please arrange for the review of your abstract by a colleague who is a native English speaker, by a university scientific publications office (or other similar facility) or by a copy editor, prior to submission.
All submitted abstracts will be forwarded to the Committee for review. Notifications regarding status will be sent once the review process is complete.
