- 18th Meeting of the European Neurological Society
-
Jun 7, 2008 - Jun 11, 2008,
Nice- Acropolis Convention Center, Nice, Provence Cote dAzur FranceDear Colleagues,
It is a great pleasure to welcome you to Nice, capital of the French Riviera, fifth largest city of France and one of its leading convention cities for the 18th Meeting of the European Neurological Society.
Nice is a unique and vibrant Mediterranean city that has plenty to offer the visitor yearround, even when Carnival is a distant memory. Taking a stroll in Nice, seeing the Modern Art Museum, the Old Town, the Colline du Château or the Promenade des Anglais, or enjoying a trip along the breathtaking coastline from Saint-Tropez to Menton, all sound like an invitation to enter the world-famous legends of the French Riviera.
Tourism is indeed an important sector of the local industry. However, the city, with a highly educated workforce, is also prominent in the high-tech fields, telecommunications, multimedia and healthcare sectors. The Nice Sophia-Antipolis University with its 26,000 students and 1,300 professors has the France’s best research and development facilities.
The meeting provides an ideal platform for continuing education in all fields of neurology, covering a broad spectrum of topics with state-of-the-art lectures by acknowledged experts. I am convinced that you will enjoy this excellent programme arranged by the ENS Executive Committee and equally convinced that you will enjoy your stay here. On behalf of the Local Organising Committee of the Congress, I am delighted to welcome you to Nice in June 2008.
5 main symposia:
Coma and locked-in syndrome
Behavioural disorder and dementia
Autoimune disorders of the nervous system
Multiple sclerosis: when to start a treatment and which treatment

- The European Summer School on Scattering Methods Applied to Soft Condensed Matter (Bombannes 2008)
-
Jun 7, 2008 - Jun 14, 2008,
Les Bruyeres Bombannes, Gironde, FranceThe school is devoted to a practical approach to neutron, X-ray, and light scattering experiments involving theoretical principles, mathematical transformation back to real space and structural model calculation of the scattering.
It is aimed at young colloid and polymer scientists (using scattering methods in their home laboratory or at large-scale facilities) who have already some background in this domain and want to learn complementary techniques and to exchange their experience.
The primary objective is to explain current methodology of static and dynamic scattering techniques (avoiding both under and over-exploitation of data) rather than a general course on colloids and polymers. Basic information on data interpretation, on the complementary properties of the different types of radiation, as well as information on recent applications and developments will be presented. - full details

- Innovations in Refractive Surgery
-
Jun 7, 2008 - Jun 7, 2008,
Cole Eye Institute, Cleveland Clinic Cleveland, Ohio United StatesThis program highlights the most notable innovations in refractive surgery in the past few years. Each of these innovations has begun to revolutionize the field of refractive surgery and, in doing so, has also begun to stir up some controversy. The program will also include debates in three controversial topics in the field, which include vision correction (laser vs lens), laser vision correction (surface ablation vs LASIK) and presbyopia correction (multifocality vs movement vs depth of field).
Participants should be able to indicate whether intraocular benefits outweigh the risks, whether the popular return of surface ablation outweighs the precision of IntraLASIK and whether technologies using multifocality, movement or depth of field will likely define the future presbyopia correction. - full details

- There and Back Again: Re-fashioning Journey and Place in the Middle Ages
-
Jun 7, 2008 - Jun 7, 2008,
Balliol College Oxford, England, United KingdomImages, imagination and the written word shaped medieval perceptions of the world just as much as direct experience and observation. By writing their own accounts, pilgrim authors re-encoded holy writ into a new framework of the holy places. Secular writings, architectural recreations of faraway buildings and artistic representations of journeys in illuminated manuscripts fed ideas about the world 'out there', while bringing the 'out there' very much into the realm of the 'right here'. Likewise, images, sagas, ballads, and travellers' tales changed, and were changed by, real-world experience.
This one-day symposium will bring together scholars in several disciplines to discuss how those throughout the middle ages chose to portray the reality they encountered—and constructed—through travel, whether in their own journeys or in journeys made by others. - full details
