摘要

Of the 2300 research papers submitted for presentation at the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) annual meeting in Miami Beach last month, 1400 were accepted. John H. Noseworthy, MD, chair of neurology at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Rochester, Minn, and chair of the AAN's science committee for the meeting, had the difficult task of boiling down all that research into what the committee considered the top 10% of papers to discuss at the scientific highlights session. The presentations covered the full scale of basic science to clinical practice, and Noseworthy summed up the results in a nutshell: "We've enjoyed a superb week."
