The 14th EEC has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 34 European CME credits (ECMEC®s). The Scientific and Organising Committee is working to create a program that represents the best European and global epileptology. Sessions will include the Chairs’ Symposium, Teaching Courses and Sessions, Platform Sessions, EEC Forums and a Special Session on Epilepsy in emergencies among others.
During a satellite symposium sponsored by PTC Therapeutics, professors presented about AADC deficiency differential diagnosis and management; the clinician and caregiver experience.
The chair of the symposium was Prof. Francesco Porto from Italy. He spoke about identifying AADC deficiency – an underdiagnosed and underreported neurometabolic disorder. The symposium has had a presentation from Prof. Bruria Ben Zeev from Israel. She spoke about the therapeutic landscape for AADC deficiency: key clinical data and patient outcomes.
The symposium closed with Prof. Francesco Porto introducing our family. We presented the AADC deficiency patient journey: a caregiver’s perspective. The symposium closed with an open forum where attending physicians were able to ask live questions during a Q&A session.
