📍 #ELASF2026 – Stockholm

Are you a stroke survivor, carer or a healthcare professional in life after stroke? Are you attending The European Life After Stroke Forum in Stockholm on the 9-10 March 2026?

The EU Horizon project @RES-Q+ and a team from Aalborg University in Denmark are inviting ELASF attendees to explore new app ideas designed to support stroke survivor’s recovery after leaving hospital.

You will be asked to take a few minutes to:
-Look at different app concepts
-Share what would (or would not) work for you
-Help the team design something truly useful

Your involvement can help improve stroke recovery support and follow-up care.

Visit the team in the research village at the event to take part.
