It is with regret that we have decided to postpone our remaining Brain Awareness Month events due to the continuing outbreak of the Covid-19 coronavirus. All our remaining events throughout March and April are currently postponed until further notice.

We know that many people were looking forward to these presentations from researchers that the Neurological Foundation has been able to fund through the donations of so many of our supporters. We hope to be able to advise of plans for new events in the near future.

In the interim, we will be working to film as many presentations as possible and bring these to you online so that we can continue to share the latest neurological research updates with you. You can sign up to our email newsletter to be updated with the latest news and videos here: https://neurological.org.nz/email-sign-up.

Thank you for your understanding.

You’re invited to learn about the many wonders and marvels of the human brain during Brain Awareness Month. By donating to the Neurological Foundation, you can become an advocate for the research these scientists and clinicians are undertaking, and we would like to invite you to attend a presentation in Napier with Dr Douglas Campbell.

Dr Douglas Campbell is a Specialist Neuro-Anesthetic at the Auckland City Hospital currently researching the potential use for anesthetic drugs and interventions to improve stroke outcomes in New Zealand. He will be presenting on the drug and physiologic interventions performed by the anesthetist have the potential to be beneficial patients suffering the most severe strokes.

There will be a mix and mingle with refreshments after the event from 7.30 - 8.30 pm.

The event will begin promptly at 6.30 with a 45 minute presentation and concluding with an opportunity for audience members to ask questions after the presentation.

Parking is available onsite, but it is on a first come, first serve basis.

Tickets are free, but registration is required to ensure you reserve a seat.
