Your conference theme:
Reimagining Brain & Nervous System Health & Disability
The world neurological health and disability landscape is undergoing significant transformation. People living with neurological conditions face unique challenges that span across health, disability, education, justice and aged care systems. These conditions are now the leading cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide, placing unprecedented pressure on already strained resources. Addressing the current and future needs, challenges and gaps demands a unified multidisciplinary and intersectoral approach, where consumers, clinicians, researchers, policymakers, service providers and community organisations work together to create meaningful change to ensure research, public policy, and care systems align with the needs and reality of people living with a neurological condition in the modern era.
With the World Health Organisation’s 2022-2031 Intersectoral Global Action Plan on Epilepsy and other Neurological Disorders blueprint for change, and significant reforms across health, aged care, disability and research sectors, there is an urgent call to reimagine how we approach care, collaboration, research and innovation to advance brain health and inform and shape positive and impactful change for the prevention, treatment and management of neurological disorders.
The Australasian Neurological Conference & Expo 2025 will cover a wide range of topics that empower patients and carers through consumer involvement and access to education and resources; support the design and sharing of research and improve translation into clinical practice; foster interdisciplinary thought and collaboration; and inform the design and implementation of sustainable, person-centred, value-based systems and plans to vastly improve equitable access to world leading community and clinical care and overall quality of life.
By uniting our collective thinking, efforts and resources, we can and will build new ideas, collaborations and capacity to reduce the burden and impact of neurological conditions and transform the lives of all people, families and societies affected.
A premier event for our Australasian neurological community, this two-day conference & expo offers a unique opportunity for consumers and professionals to come together to share information and insights with delegates across health, disability, aged, education and justice sectors.
With consumers at its heart, the event is designed for people with lived experience; neurological not-for-profit organisations; aged, education and disability care providers; neurologists and other neurological specialists; general practitioners; neurological nurses and allied health professionals, policy makers and neuroscience researchers and academics.
By bringing community voices together with leaders with a neurological interest, we seek to build relationships, promote understanding and cross sector collaboration, and strengthen and enhance neurological health, wellbeing and related health and disability care across our region and beyond.
