ESA CLINICAL EPILEPSY COURSE - FRIDAY 26th FEBRUARY 2027

ANZAN EEG COURSE - SATURDAY 27th and SUNDAY 28th FEBRUARY 2027

INVITATION

The annual ANZAN EEG course and ESA Clinical Epilepsy course will be held at Westmead Hospital, Sydney between February 26 and 28, 2027. These courses are intended for neurology trainees but practising neurologists are welcome and will find them both instructive and a good update.

The Clinical Epilepsy Course is a one-day, case-based workshop focusing on the practical management of paediatric and adult patients with epilepsy. Participants will discuss each case in small groups under the leadership of an epileptologist, followed by a short didactic summary by the presenter. The 2027 course will focus on common clinical problems faced by doctors caring for patients with epilepsy in the outpatient setting. For neurology trainees this course will provide a foundation for you to deal with clinical issues encountered on a daily basis and attendance is strongly recommended.

The EEG Course is held over two days and provides a theoretical and practical background to the reading and reporting of routine adult and paediatric EEG. The format consists of seven 90 minute sessions, each starting with a 30 minute lecture followed by a 60 minute small group, hands-on tutorial where EEG examples will be demonstrated and discussed under the direction of an experienced EEG tutor. Topics include basic technical aspects of EEG, the normal awake and asleep EEG, and epileptiform and non-epileptiform abnormalities in adults and children. The course will also include lectures and tutorial sessions on EEG in the Intensive Care Unit, Ictal EEG and avoiding common errors which run in parallel with the main EEG course and will be available to neurology trainees who have previously attended the course and neurologists.

Registration will open early November 2026.
