About Siloam Neuroscience Summit

Neurological diseases encompass a broad spectrum of disorders that impact the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves, including epilepsy, strokes, migraines, and seizures. A significant subgroup within this spectrum is cerebrovascular diseases, which affect the blood arteries in the brain. The most common example is a stroke, which happens when ischemia or hemorrhage reduces or stops blood supply to the brain, causing damage to brain cells. Smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, and unhealthy lifestyle habits are risk factors.

As Indonesia's population ages and becomes more urbanized, neurological disorders are becoming an increasingly critical public health issue. The most common cause of mortality and disability is stroke. The prevalence of stroke in the country is 10.9 per 1,000, according to Riskesdas 2018. Reducing the burden of cerebrovascular and other neurological illnesses requires early detection, appropriate treatment, and lifestyle modifications.

Goals

The goal of the 2025 Siloam Neuroscience Summit is to improve medical practitioners' and researchers' comprehension and communication of neurological health issues. The conference will discuss contemporary challenges in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of neurological illnesses and will feature top neurology and neurosurgery experts. Through symposium and workshop, the event will encourage cooperation between practitioners and healthcare organizations. The summit is more than just a scholastic meeting; it is a component of a larger effort to enhance neurological health in Indonesia and help create a society that is better informed and empowered.

Key Topics

The conference's subject centers on "Exploring the Depth of Neuroscience: New Horizons and Opportunities" in our quest for a healthier and more inventive future. This theme captures the spirit of advancement and exploration that characterizes the contemporary healthcare environment.
