                    Renaissance: Future Therapies In Neurology
                    The utilization of novel future therapies to tackle various neurological diseases will be the
                    pervading theme at the 19th annual meeting of the Neurological Association of New
                    Zealand (NANZ), to be held in the fabulous city of Hamilton from Thursday, November 7th to
                    Friday, November 8th, 2019.
                    We are delighted to present two renowned keynote speakers. Dr Thomas Oxley is an interventional
                    neurologist in the Department of Neurosurgery at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, a laboratory
                    head of the Vascular Bionics Laboratory at the University of Melbourne, and the founding CEO
                    of Synchron, a pioneering company in the field of minimally invasive brain-computer interface
                    technology; Thomas is a world expert on endovascular bionics. Dr Bruce Campbell is a stroke
                    neurologist and stroke lead at the Department of Neurology at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, a
                    professorial fellow in the Melbourne Brain Centre at the University of Melbourne, and a director
                    and chair of the Clinical Council for the Stroke Foundation; Bruce was co-principal investigator and
                    medical co-ordinator of EXTEND-IA, a landmark, multi-centre randomized trial of endovascular
                    clot retrieval following standard intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke.
                     In addition to the keynote speakers, NANZ 2019 will expand on previous conferences by adding
                     in parallel sessions designed to increase the total number of speakers. Thus, a greater number
                     of neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists, and neuropsychologists throughout New
Zealand will attend and present at NANZ 2019 compared to previous conferences.
Moreover, a large venue for exhibition booths has been arranged for NANZ 2019; the Atrium at WINTEC is a modern,
spacious venue that will allow us to complement our increased number of speakers and attendees with a concordant
increase in representation from our pharmaceutical representatives.

Venue
NANZ 2019 will take place at the ultra modern Waikato Institute
of Technology (WINTEC), a spacious facility located in central
Hamilton, and will consist of morning plenary lectures and afternoon
parallel sessions. Conference presentations will be dedicated to
various subtopics of neurology, but there will also be presentations
dedicated to neurosurgery, neuroradiology, and neuropsychology. Given the large venue size and parallel session
format, submissions for presentations and posters are encouraged from all registrars, neurologists, neurosurgeons,
neuroradiologists, and neuropsychologists throughout New Zealand.
