Scientific Program Abstracts

The AAN Annual Meeting Scientific Program highlights breakthrough research on the most critical issues facing neurologists. More than 1,600 poster and platform presentations cover the spectrum of neurology, from updates on the latest diagnostic and treatment techniques to prevention and practice management strategies.

While the AAN continues to emphasize original research and prefers that the Annual Meeting be the forum for initial presentation, it recognizes that high-quality research of interest to neurologists is presented at subspecialty or other scientific meetings. The Science Committee and Scientific Program Subcommittee will review all disclosures regarding previous presentation or publication during the abstract review and selection process, but will not penalize previously presented work if it is of interest to AAN Annual Meeting attendees.

The AAN encourages all poster presenters selected for presentation to submit their posters electronically once they've received confirmation of presentation. Save time, money, and the hassle of shipping or bringing your research onboard a flight—avoid a baggage fee. Please look for more details in January 2010.
