NEW: Watch lectures online
The Encephalitis Society has teamed up with NeuroEducation to provide information
about the illness and research in audio and video format. NeuroEducation is a non
profit project based within the NHS.
As part of Neuroeducation’s expanding services they are offering the chance
for everyone to watch lectures and other educational video material online for no
charge or a very small charge, usually only one or two pounds.
There are two routes to access lectures, one for lay people and one for professionals.
Lay people use www.vnccfamily.org website and professionals use the www.vnccprofessional.org
website.
