DISTAL Trial

[Urs Martin Fischer @FishingNeurons]

Stroke affects 1 in 4 people globally-yet life-saving treatments remain out of reach for too many.

Since 2014, our Stroke Schools have trained teams worldwide to bridge this gap. Watch our latest video from the Asian Stroke School 2026 in Trivandrum with @WHO @ESOstroke

Can brain training, cognitive aids or exercise help brain function after #stroke? 🧠

Ca 44% of stroke survivors experience difficulties with memory, attention or language after stroke.
