DIDACTIC LECTURES
In a manner similar to recent AOEC meetings, the Scientific Advisory
Committee aims to provide participants with a series of didactic lectures,
which are an important axis of the Congress. The lectures are organized
by the Asian Epilepsy Academy (ASEPA), which is the educational arm
of the Commission on Asian and Oceanian Affairs (CAOA). Two lectures
pertaining to crucial aspects of contemporary epistemology will be given
each day. There will be a total of six topics presented as plenary sessions
of the Congress in order to provide the latest available information.
The lecturers are all world-renowned experts in their respective field.
The fundamentals as well as state-of-the-art implications of the topics
will be covered. ASEPA believes a series of didactic lectures, delivered
by eminent experts, will be able to provide participants with an efficient
way of enriching their knowledge of the forefront of epileptology. The
ASEPA encourages all those who wish to attend to familiarize themselves
with the speakers and their work.
The line up of speakers and presentations is as follows:
