Gidal presents at 2nd African Epilepsy Congress

Barry Gidal, professor (CHS), and Division Chair of the Pharmacy Practice Division, shared his expertise as an invited presenter at two meetings in South Africa this spring.

Gidal participated in a panel discussion at the 2nd African Epilepsy Congress (AEC) in Cape Town, South Africa in May. Entitled, “Epilepsy in Africa: Bridging the gap,” the second AEC was a significant scientific event for the epilepsy community in Africa and farther afield. Gidal was a lead speaker in the round table discussion entitled, “Epilepsy management guidelines and their implementation.”

While in South Africa, Gidal also presented at a meeting of the Pharmaceutical Society of South Africa in the Western Cape.
