[SS-03] International tele-education on neurology: how to actively join tele-conference

[SS-03-5] How to join English teleconference on neurologicial diseases

Yasushi Kisanuki (Department of Neurology, The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, USA)

The importance and needs of tele-conference are rapidly gowing in the world. There is a considerable barrier for non-native speakers including Japanese to actively join such international or even local tele-conferences in English. In this symposium, examples of international case conferences and tele-education are presented by experienced experts. We would like to discuss the future plans of tele-conference and tele-education which the Japanese Society of Neurology should promote. Furthermore, we would like to encourage young colleagues to join this symposium to learn some tips of acively participating in such tele-meetings.
