WELCOME ADDRESS
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
As a president of the Organizing
Committee of the International Conference on Diagnosis and Treatment in
Pediatric Neurology, Warsaw, 14-17th 2008, I am pleased to present you
Proceedings of this
meeting. Eight hundred participants from Europe and other continents
attended the Conference, which was designed to present an update in the
diagnosis and management of diseases of the nervous system in children
and demonstrate the dramatic progress achieved in our field.
Internationally recognized experts had assumed responsibility for the
content of the scientific sessions and poster presentations.
We believe that there was no better
place for such an event than Poland. Eighteen years ago, Poland
initiated the great changes in whole Eastern Europe and led to the
collapse of the communist regime. Nowadays, Poland goes through an
impressive growth in economy and structure, including most advanced and
innovative technologies and research. Warsaw is an extraordinary city,
where the history and future are linked so tightly. In Warsaw,
influences of Western and Eastern Europe culture cross, creating a vivid
and inspiring environment. There was no better place to disseminate
knowledge, discuss novel projects and findings, share personal
experiences and establish scientific collaboration.
Professor Sergiusz Jozwiak, MD, PhD.
Chairman of the Organizing Committee
President of the Polish Child Neurology Society
