European Stroke Conference, INTERACT2, and Stroke Support Organizations invited to contribute to International Journal of Stroke blog

摘要

Here we are, a third of the way through 2013 and already the stroke calendar is bursting with interesting meetings and exciting possible outcomes. After a very successful International Stroke Conference in Hawaii, we are now ready for another outstanding meeting at European Stroke Conference (ESC) in London where some important trial results will be released, not the least of which is INTERACT 2. International Journal of Stroke (IJS) has a strong link with this study having published the protocol,'The second (main) phase of an open, randomised, multicentre study to investigate the effectiveness of an intensive blood pressure reduction in acute cerebral haemorrhage trial (INTERACT2)' protocol article is available at the online IJS archives, and podcasts with the principal investigator Craig Anderson are available online at iTunes. Immediately after the INTERACT 2 presentation of results, we will be doing a fast-track video interview for our YouTube channel with Craig Anderson to share the results with the readers worldwide. The use of media in this way allows rapid dissemination of this information in a way we would have never thought possible several years ago. IJS has been at the forefront of this media revolution since inception and will continue to harness new technologies as they emerge.
