🎥 Missed yesterday’s webinar? Be sure to catch up with the recording!

We were delighted to explore the progress of the pilot edition of the EastMINT programme, under the leadership of EastMINT Chair Ivan Vukasinovic. The session brought together representatives from the three participating sites—Nikola Boban (Novi Sad, Serbia), Deniz Bulja (Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina), and Petar Janevski (Skopje, North Macedonia)—and sparked insightful exchanges with moderator Jan-Hendrik Buhk and Ivan Vukasinovic.

While the discussions highlighted the very real, region-specific challenges of stroke care across Eastern Europe, the overall tone was one of optimism, collaboration, and tangible progress already achieved.

The EastMINT programme is built on three core pillars:
🔹 Quality education
🔹 E-proctorship
🔹 Observership
