  23/01/2020

  The target audience of this meeting is young clinicians and scientists who have an interest in headache science and who are based in the Caucasus region and geoculturally related areas. The concept is to bring juniors with significant experience in headache research from Western Europe and USA to the region to present their own work, network with and provide inspiration to the regional delegates. The meeting will be facilitated by top international experts, who will lecture on the latest advances and methodology in the field and provide the delegates with the tools they need to start research of their own. A key goal of the meeting is to promote local research activities and to put research ideas into motion. Active participation is required from the delegates who will produce four high quality review articles on headache-related topics for publication in Cephalalgia and The Journal of Headache and Pain.
