EAN Moderator: Thomas Berger (Vienna, Austria)
Guest: Tobias Cronberg (Lund, Sweden)

In this episode, Cronberg joins Berger to discuss the evolving role of hypothermia in neurointensive care, particularly after cardiac arrest. Drawing from large clinical trials and real-world cases, they explore why hypothermia is falling out of favour and what this means for neurologists and emergency care.

Moderator: Roberta Balestrino (Milan, Italy)
Guest: Richard Dodel (Essen, Germany)

In this episode, Dodel joins Balestrino to explore the social and economic burden of neurological disorders, highlighting findings from the EAN-led COIN (Cost of Illness in Neurology) project. They discuss why diseases like headaches and multiple sclerosis carry some of the highest costs and what this means for healthcare systems across Europe.

Moderator: Marian Galovic (Zurich, Switzerland)
Guest: Max Hilz (Erlangen, Germany)

A video version of this episode is available on the eanCampus.
In this episode, Galovic welcomes Hilz to discuss the science behind autogenic training, a self-guided relaxation technique rooted in neurophysiology. Hilz explains how it helps regulate autonomic function, reduce stress, and support patients with neurological and functional disorders.

Moderator: Barbara Tettenborn (St. Gallen, Switzerland)
Guest: Aviv Weinstein (Ariel, Israel)

In this episode, Accorroni is joined by Midelfart-Hoff and Fiorillo, who share their personal experiences with burnout as senior neurologists and discuss long-term strategies for resilience. Together, they reflect on how attitudes toward mental health in medicine have changed over the past 20 years, emphasizing why both individual contributions and systemic support are essential for transforming the culture around clinicians' well-being and building sustainable careers in neurology.
