Strokes are among the most serious diseases in Ukraine. They occupy the third place in the mortality rate of the Ukrainian population. Every year around 100,000 people experience strokes. About 40 thousand die within a year, and the majority become disabled. Only around 15-20 thousand can serve themselves after srokes or return to normal way of life.

The conference was attended by the leading neuropathologists, neurosurgeons, anesthetists and  physicians from Ukraine and abroad. The project is held in the format of an educational school.
