Not to be missed the iPASTAR (Improving Pathways for Acute Stroke and Rehabilitation) Launch & Symposium will take place on December 17th 2021 virtually at 11am-12.30pm. Please see attached Save the Date invitation.
Led by Prof. David Williams (RCSI) and Prof. Frances Horgan (RCSI), iPASTAR is a collaborative doctoral training award funded by the Health Research Board of Ireland, Collaborative Doctoral Awards Programme 2019, and hosted by RCSI and UCD.
Guest speaker, Prof. Bo Norrving (Prof. of Neurology Lund University) will present on the Stroke Action Plan for Europe, and the road map for the implementation of evidence-based preventive actions and stroke services to 2030.
The symposium will introduce iPASTAR and the four PhD scholar’s and their projects, which are focussing on delivery of stroke care for patients, from the hospital, to rehabilitation in the community, and living well after stroke. More importantly, symposium participants will hear from our PPI partners, and hear perspectives from a stroke survivor on their experience of life after stroke and being involved in iPASTAR.
