child neurology National Grand Rounds
The Canadian Association of Child Neurology (CACN) began running National Grand Rounds in 2008 and still continue, with the intent of 2 sessions presented each year.
These national rounds allows trainees and child neurologists to interact, thus promoting networking and cohesion. There is typically a more senior member overseeing the Rounds presentation and a resident member that will plan and present the case. The format is presentation of an interesting case with discussion of the differential diagnosis by all participants, revelation of the diagnosis and a brief presentation of the condition.
This is a volunteer run endeavor through the CACN board and the CACN membership, with the hosting location based on session volunteers. The presenting centre is able to utilize their preferred webcast format, ie ZOOM, Microsoft Teams, etc. Participants connect via PC with a webcam, speaker & mic. You can join on an individual basis in your own office or bring a laptop with a webcam to your conference room and hook up to your screen for group participation.
If your center would be interested in presenting a session for CACN National Grand Rounds, please contact donna-irvin@cnsf.org.
Rounds Publication
The Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences (CJNS), has created a special submission category for presenting centers to submit their Rounds results for possible publication within the Journal. When your centre has completed a session of CACN National Grand Rounds you can submit via the CJNS hosting platform with Cambridge University Press / Cambridge Core. Select your submission category as a “Clinical Case Conference”. If you do not already have a separate login with the CJNS, you can create an account or login with your ORCID ID which tracks all of your scholarly publications.
