D07 Final Year Electives for Medical StudentsDescriptionThe Institute of Neurology offers a limited number of undergraduate Elective placements, to final year medical students from the UK and abroad, which are booking at least 18 months in advance. These placements are not strictly structured - it is advisable to be as pro-active as possible. It is up to the individual student to choose the activities they wish to attend, within their assigned clinical group/formal teaching programme, which would most benefit them during their placement. https://www.ucl.ac.uk/ion/study/electives-medical-students
D07 The Hot Brain 3 - Climate Change & Brain HealthDescriptionClimate change continues to worsen: 2024 has been declared the hottest year on record. People with neurological disease are likely to be amongst those affected first and most severely. The incidence of some neurological diseases is likely to rise, whilst healthcare systems will become increasingly compromised in providing care for people affected. Newer aspects of climate change impacts are emerging and raising new concerns. Climate change is already impacting the professional lives of healthcare providers and scientists. Even if greenhouse gas emissions are stopped today, there will still be further rises in global temperatures, with all their accompanying consequences. We need to act now to preserve brain health and plan for this changing environment. Following on from successful meetings in 2023 and 2024, the aims of this year’s meeting are to raise awareness about the risks of climate change for the brain and neurological healthcare, to nurture global collaborative research, and to promote action against climate change and foster adaptation strategies. The meeting is jointly organised by UCL and The Lancet Neurology. Poster Prizes Delegates are invited to submit posters related to the meeting. Posters should be sent by email to s.porteous@ucl.ac.uk Certificates representing the planting of 20 trees in the UCL Grove (https://treesforlife.org.uk/groves/144298/) will be awarded to the presenters of the best posters as judged by the organising committee.
