Paros Epilepsy 2026

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Following the very successful first edition of the Paros meeting on anatomo-clinical correlations in epilepsy surgery, we are delighted to announce the second edition, which will take place 11 - 15 May 2026.

This new edition will focus on SEEG-based direct electrical brain stimulation, aiming to create a comprehensive and complementary reference resource for the global epilepsy community in the years to come.

To achieve this, 50 internationally renowned experts from leading epilepsy centers across 20 countries and 5 continents will contribute to this unique initiative. It is jointly supported by ILAE-Europe, EpiCARE, and the educational journal Epileptic Disorders, which will publish the resulting systematic reviews.

The first edition in 2024 attracted close to 350 registered participants, both in-person and online, from 35 countries.

This event offers an exceptional opportunity to engage with the international epilepsy community and brings together leading experts for five days of high-level scientific exchange in a truly exceptional setting—the magnificent island of Paros, in the Greek Cyclades. Once again, this meeting is made possible thanks to the generous support of the Greek League Against Epilepsy.

We anticipate a memorable and intellectually stimulating gathering that will serve as a milestone in the field of SEEG and epilepsy surgery.

We sincerely hope to see you there,

The Organizing Committee
