Welcome from the Chair

Clinical neurophysiology is a challenging field that requires an in-depth understanding of the nervous system and how it functions. Another challenge in clinical neurophysiology is the wide range of conditions that can affect the nervous system. From epilepsy to multiple sclerosis to peripheral neuropathies, there are a multitude of neurological disorders that clinicians must be able to diagnose and treat. Additionally, the technology used in clinical neurophysiology is constantly evolving, and clinicians must stay up to date on the latest advancements in order to provide the best possible care for their patients. This requires a commitment to ongoing education and training, as well as a willingness to embrace new techniques and technologies. One promising trend in novel epilepsy medications is the development of drugs that target specific molecular pathways involved in epilepsy, such as ion channels, neurotransmitter systems, and synaptic transmission. These targeted therapies aim to provide more effective and precise treatment options for patients with different types of epilepsy, including drug-resistant forms. Additionally, novel medications are being explored for their potential to modulate inflammatory processes, neuroprotection, and neuroplasticity, which may offer new avenues for managing epilepsy and its comorbidities. Overall, update strategies in clinical epilepsy treatment play a crucial role in ensuring that patients receive the most effective and up-to-date care possible. By staying informed about the latest advances in epilepsy treatment, clinicians can improve patient outcomes and quality of life.

Introduction
Bio
Mrs. Stavroula Aristeidou graduated from the Medical School of Athens. Subsequently, after completing her specialization in neurology at the university clinic of Aiginiteio Hospital, she received her master's degree in clinical neurophysiology. Since then, she has been working as a scientific associate at the neurophysiology laboratory of Aiginiteio Hospital. She has extensive clinical experience in the differential diagnosis of peripheral system disorders using electrophysiological methods. She has participated in various international conferences, with numerous announcements and publications in journals.
