What an incredible evening! ๐ŸŽ‰

UQ Neurological Society, together with the Queensland Pharmacy Studentsโ€™ Association, successfully hosted our Academic Symposium: Epilepsy, bringing together students and experts from across neurology, neuroscience and pharmacy.

A huge thank you to our amazing speakers for sharing their clinical expertise, research insights and lived-experience perspectives on epilepsy. From expert talks and audience Q&A to networking over dinner, it was fantastic to see students from different disciplines coming together to learn and connect. ๐Ÿ’œ

Thank you to QPSA, all of our speakers, volunteers and everyone who joined us and made the night possible!

We hope you walked away with new knowledge, new connections, and a deeper understanding of epilepsy. ๐Ÿง โœจ
