Turkish Stroke Research and Clinical Trials Network
The Official Network of Stroke Researchers under the guidance of
Turkish Cerebrovascular Diseases Society
(member of ESO and WSO)
TurkStrokeNet brings together all dedicated stroke researchers and clinicians in Turkey with the purpose of enhancing collaborative efforts for stroke research at the national and international level. The focus of research and trials embraces every aspect of stroke, including prevention, treatment and recovery, from all related disciplines. The coordinated effort of this platform will also form the backbone of national strategies that will improve and standardize quality of stroke care.

Turkish Society of Cerebrovascular Diseases and ESOTA Collaboration
TurkStrokeNet, operating under the umbrella of the Turkish Society of Cerebrovascular Diseases, has begun collaborative efforts with the European Stroke Organisation Trials Alliance (ESOTA). As the first step in this collaboration, a letter of intent has been sent to ESOTA for membership. We believe that ensuring Turkey's representation within ESOTA, which is rapidly developing into a crucial platform for scientific research in the field of stroke, is of great importance both for the scientific development of neurologists dedicated to stroke research in our country and for stroke patients to access the most up-to-date treatment options.
