@hamzah2506 Thanks very much for double-checking. We are currently exploring options of how to deliver our masterclass safely but with the same quality and, hopefully, similar experience for delegates and speakers. We will tweet updates here soon!

I’m still an early-career researcher myself but what I’ve experienced so far is that the epileptology community is very friendly and supportive. So join us!

Conceptions of the world are subjective regardless of what area you work in and science is no exemption from that. Just because I think I know something or because the majority of people in my area think they know something doesn't mean it's actually true.
