The 20th European Congress for Clinical Neurophysiology will take place in Málaga, Spain, from 19–22 October 2027. Hosted by the Spanish Society of Clinical Neurophysiology and the Spanish Society of Neurological Electrodiagnosis in collaboration with the European, Middle East and Africa Chapter of IFCN, ECCN 2027 brings together the clinical neurophysiology community.
The invitation’s theme, “Neurophysiology: From Neuronal Circuits to Clinical Practice”, focuses on the relationship between basic science and clinical application. The programme is intended to show how understanding neuronal circuits can inform diagnostic and therapeutic strategies and contribute to better patient care.
The announced scope spans experimental research, animal models and computational modelling through to clinical trials. Learning systems and robotics are also included among the areas the organisers plan to address. This range connects methodological advances with the practical work of clinicians using neurophysiology to investigate and manage nervous-system disorders.
Oral and poster sessions will provide opportunities for young scientists and clinicians to present their research. Alongside contributions from established experts, these formats are intended to support discussion among researchers, clinical practitioners and industry professionals. The meeting’s emphasis is on sharing developments across the field rather than restricting the programme to a single technique or disease group.
The symposium proposal deadline is 31 October 2026. Congress registration is scheduled to open on 15 December 2026. Abstract submissions are scheduled to open on 1 February 2027 and close on 1 April, with an early-bird registration and hotel cut-off date of 19 July 2027.
The congress dates are 19–22 October; any workshop activity on 18 October is separate from the main congress date range. The developing programme and abstract pages provide the official route for following participation opportunities as details are released.
ECCN 2027 offers an international setting for examining how new scientific and technical approaches can be carried into clinical neurophysiology practice, while giving early-career contributors a route to share their work with the wider community.
