An epic breakthrough in the history of the virtual conference was achieved by the Emirates Neurology Society (EMINS) for its three-day Congress on Emirates Neurology from February 4 – 6, 2021, boasting a total estimate of 16, 588+ delegates all across the world.

Then, we’re able to hear Dr. Mohammed Asif Dogar as he took the virtual floor with his great clinical analysis on Neuro Radiology in Demyelinated Disorders. Dr. Jihad Inshasi moderated the second session with a back to back MS Debate between Dr. Ruqqia Mir and Dr. Mustafa Shakra. We’re blessed to hear Prof. Christoph Kleinschnitz from Germany as he gave his discussion with such profound clarity on the topic of The Latest on SPMS followed by a precise talk on TYSABRI: The Power You Need: The Experience You Trust For Your Highly Active RRMS Patients by Dr. Miklos Szolis.

Dr. Alessandro Terruzzi was also appointed as Moderator as he welcomed Dr. Martin Ruttledge from the UK sharing his thoughts on Aimovig, The Longest Studied Anti-CGRP. On the New Era for Acute Treatments in Migraine Management, Prof. Richard Lipton has discussed this topic with such precise medical accuracy and then followed by Prof. Dawn Buse who gave us a very succinct argument on the topic of Unmet Medical Needs in the Management of Migraine, What the Patients Need. Returning speaker Dr. Mohammed Asif Dogar closed the final session with his raw analysis on Neuro Radiology in CVT. Throughout the sessions, all speakers were moderated for the Question and Answer portion by Dr. Mohammed Al Kuwaiti, Dr. Mustafa Shakra, and Dr. Alessandro Terruzzi.

On the final day of the congress with a staggering 5.7k attendees, Dr. Suhail Abdulla AlRukn was back on the virtual podium to commence another set of dynamic sessions packed with the new line of speakers and scientific discussions.

To recapitulate the three sessions on day three, returning speaker and moderator Dr. Ruqqia Mir has introduced us to our esteemed first speaker Dr. Derk Krieger who shared his wonderful research and clinical based study on Stroke: 3 Sessions – New Thrombolitic Modality of Treatment. This topic was supplemented with the discussion of Expand the Acute Stroke Management Window by one of our prominent speakers Dr. Maria Khan Junaidi. Dr. Derk Krieger with his inborn wit for setting an academic argument was also tasked as session moderator. Speaking on the virtual stage was Dr. Abdallah Mohammed Al-Salti who provided a very interesting examination and luminous presentation on the poetic subject of Not in the Head, It is in their Muscles. Prof. Dr. Mag. Eugen Trinka from Austria gave us his dialogue On Clinical Profile and Unique Mechanism of Action of AEDs which then transitioned to Dr. Karan Poddar’s Antiepileptic Therapy in Women with Epilepsy. For the final session, Dr. Suhail Abdulla AlRukn welcomed Dr. Pournamy Sarathchandran as she intricately provided clinical investigation on Early Parkinson Management and was complemented by Dr. Shivam Om Mittal’s discussion on Late Parkinson Management. Further on the same wavelength of the argument, we’re able to grasp very arresting information revolving around Parkinson’s as Dr. Vittorio Iantorno expanded the topic with his broad clinical knowledge on Non-Motor Parkinson Manifestation and Treatment. This session was concluded with a great tremor (no pun intended) with Dr. Pierre Krystkowiak’s significant findings on Tremor Approach.
