About this Event
We’re excited to invite you to join us for the annual Sutcliffe-Kerr Lecture on Monday 28th April 2025.
The annual Alan Sutcliffe meeting is named in honour of Liverpool's first accredited Neuroscience clinician, and founder of the Walton Neurosurgery Unit, which evolved into the Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust. We are delighted to have incorporated the 2025 meeting into the programme of the International Festival of Neuroscience at the ACC Liverpool, and to announce the inauguration this summer of the Liverpool Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Centre at the University of Liverpool. We are also delighted to welcome eight distinguished speakers - home and away, bedside to bench, brain and nerve - covering challenges in clinical science and practice that go beyond 'localising the lesion'.
