The field of paediatric neurology continues to evolve rapidly, and keeping pace with new knowledge remains an ongoing challenge for paediatric neurologists. True to the tradition of our society, this year we have chosen to explore, in depth and from an original perspective, two fascinating and emerging themes: paediatric cerebrovascular diseases on the one hand, and the role of inflammation in various disorders of the child’s nervous system on the other.

The first day will follow a chronological path, starting with prenatally diagnosed vascular malformations before moving on to perinatal stroke and then paediatric stroke, whose management has been radically transformed over the past decade. This multidisciplinary approach will be reflected in a faculty of speakers from diverse backgrounds. The second day will focus on inflammation, whose role in many paediatric neurological disorders is increasingly recognised, yet remains a subject of debate.

By placing these themes at the heart of its annual meeting, the European Society of Paediatric Neurology offers an opportunity to explore scientific and clinical advances in these fields, while fostering interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration across specialties. Paediatric neurologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, vascular neurologists, neuroimmunologists and researchers share a common responsibility: bringing their expertise together to better understand these rare conditions and improve care for the children affected by them.

We will have the pleasure of meeting in Geneva, a city of dialogue and international cooperation. This meeting will be an opportunity to share our experiences, compare our approaches and strengthen the collaborations that are essential to progress in paediatric neurology.

We look forward to welcoming you to Geneva, on the shores of Lake Geneva, for this new edition of the SENP+ meeting, dedicated to progress, sharing and collaboration.
