We often talk about the importance of learning from outbreaks. Are we doing enough to learn from those who have lived through them?

What does it take to truly stay ahead of emerging neurological infections in a rapidly shifting global landscape?
I’m pleased to be attending the ANZAN Annual Scientific Meeting, a key forum for clinicians and researchers from Australia and New Zealand focused on sharing current work and discussing developments in neurology.
I’ll be presenting on:
• “Tackling Emerging Neurological Infectious Disease” (Day 2)
• “Challenging Neurological Infectious Diseases - interactive clinical cases” (Day 4)
Both sessions focus on real-world complexity - from recognising early signals of emerging infections to working through diagnostic and management dilemmas in interactive case-based discussion.
Looking forward to catching up with colleagues and hearing the latest developments.
