Childhood Neurological Conditions Survey

30 September 2020

The British Paediatric Neurology Association and James Lind Alliance have launched a survey to define the Top 10 unanswered questions about the treatment of childhood neurological conditions, where there is uncertainty about the effectiveness of treatments.

Children and young adults (aged 0-25) with neurological conditions are invited to suggest your questions about treatments, therapies or procedures aimed at improving your health and wellbeing. Help shape the future of research into Childhood Neurological Conditions by sharing your experiences. Anyone affected by Neurofibromatosis is welcome to take part; patients, families, friends and carers.

It’s important our community shares its voice to ensure that the surveys and workshops carried out by, The British Paediatric Neurology Association and James Lind Alliance, are representing those whose lives are affected by NF.

The eventual aim is to turn these priorities into funded research questions that have the potential to go on to improve the lives of children with Neurofibromatosis and other neurological conditions.
