*Case Reports will routinely only be accepted as posters, although exceptional, practice-changing case reports of international significance can be submitted to the relevant topic for consideration for oral presentation

**Young investigators (<35 years) are invited to submit an abstract for a Young Stroke Physicians and Researchers workshop describing a planned research study, an ongoing project still under development or interim results from an ongoing project, as well as for the WSO-ESO-GAINS Early Career Investigators workshop which will take place in the pre-conference day. This will be a full training day for emerging investigators. Part of this workshop will be also dedicated to the discussion of research projects in development.

The successful applicants will give an oral presentation, followed by constructive assessment of the study’s design and advice on its future development by a senior, internationally-renowned investigator. In addition to providing expert guidance to develop your study, the workshops will also provide the opportunity to establish collaborations and promote your work to the wider community.
The presenter of the top scoring abstract will receive a place at the ESO Summer School 2020. All presenters will be interviewed by other Young Stroke Physicians and Researchers and the interviews will be featured on the ESO blog (https://eso-stroke.org/news/).

Abstracts for ONGOING TRIALS topic should be submitted separately from the regular abstract topics above. Detailed instructions can be found on the abstract submission page.
