🤝 During the recent Helsinki meeting, the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) and the European Federation of Autonomic Societies (EFAS) renewed their Memorandum of Understanding, reaffirming a strong and successful collaboration.

This partnership will continue to foster:
✅ Nominated speakers at each society’s meetings
