The upcoming AANS/CNS Joint Cerebrovascular Section Annual Meeting/4th SNIS International Endovascular Stroke Conference (IESC), scheduled for February 10-11, 2014 at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Dieog, California. Once again, the IESC will be co-hosted in partnership with the AANS/CNS Joint Cerebrovascular Section Annual Meeting immediately prior to the International Stroke Conference. There are many benefits to such an initiative, but certainly one of the most compelling is that this strategic alignment provides both organizations the opportunity to offer a consolidated stroke program that represents the most comprehensive program for practitioners of neurointerventional stroke treatment today.
