European Academy of Neurology

Welcome to Oslo

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to Oslo on the occasion of the 5th EAN Congress from 29 June to 2 July 2019.

Oslo is Norway’s largest city and one of Europe’s fastest-growing cities, with a population of 620,000. Half of Norway’s population lives less than 3 hours’ drive from Oslo harbor, and Oslo is quickly transforming into a cosmopolitan hub, with many of world-class museums, restaurants and art, but retains the relaxed atmosphere of a much smaller town. The compact city center is easily explored on foot or on bike, and an efficient public transport system makes the whole city accessible without a car.

Norway has longstanding traditions in neuroscience and clinical neurology. Oslo attained its first full clinical professorship in Neurology in 1895, possibly the second full chair of neurology in the world. Norway has a very active and dedicated Neurological association with more than 650 members, who will do what they can to make the congress and your stay a great success and a memorable event.
