Hosted jointly by the CanStroke Recovery Trials Platform and the StrokeCog Clinical Trials Training Platform, the 2024 Canadian Stroke Congress continues a tradition of excellence. Established in 2010, this uniquely Canadian forum brings together researchers, trainees, clinicians, allied health, administrators, policymakers, and people with lived experience (PWLE) to share new discoveries and innovations, the latest science and therapies, and to build relationships for future collaborations. The Canadian Stroke Congress continues to be the go-to meeting for Canada’s stroke community.
