Biomedical Engineering
I was a M.Sc. student under the supervision of Prof. Ilana Nisky from the department of Bio-Medical Engineering and Dr. Simona Bar-Haim from the department of Physiotherapy at Ben-Gurion University. My work is a part of a larger research, which is conducted in collaboration with Yogev Koren from the department of Physiotherapy, where the effect of gaze on stability and gait is investigated among the elderly and stroke-survivors. My research focuses on the assessment of proprioception of the lower-limbs among young adults, elderly and, stroke survivors, which will be discussed in this conference. I hold B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and my research was sponsored by the Israeli Ministry of Science and Technology and the multidisciplinary scholarship of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. Currentley, I work in "Adi-Negev" as a research and development engineer, in a project sponsored by the Israel Innovation Authority, working on developing a sensory substitution device for stroke survivors with impaired gait and somatosensory deficits.

Professor Mikulik’s main research and professional interests are diagnostics, treatment and prevention of acute stroke, stroke care organization, stroke care quality, and raising stroke awareness. The Professor’s research group involves more than 30 professionals of different expertise. The research portfolio is designed across a translational axis from basic science to clinical research and implementation research. To foster pre-clinical research in stroke in the Brno region, Prof. Mikulik established the STROKEBRNO Research Cluster (www.strokebrno.com) involving several research institutions and companies. Prof. Mikulik has developed simulation-based training in acute stroke treatment logistics for stroke teams (www.stroke-simulation.eu). Since 2016, he has conducted over 60 courses for more than 1.300 stroke professionals from 25 countries from Europe, Africa and Asia. The Professor helped to establish similar stroke simulation training programs in other countries. He is also a co-founder and member of the Simulation Training Committee in the European Stroke Organisation. Robert Mikulik served as a Member at Large in the Executive Committee in the European Stroke Organisation (ESO) during 2016–2017. Since 2015, he has been developing and chairing the ESO EAST Program aiming at improving stroke care in Eastern European and Central Asian countries. In 2016, Prof. Mikulik and his team developed the RES-Q Registry of Stroke Care Quality (www.qualityregistry.eu), an academic tool for stroke care quality measurement and improvement. RES-Q was initially targeted primarily at Eastern Europe. The Professor is a co-author of the Stroke Action Plan for Europe 2018–2030, a strategy document issued by ESO and Stroke Alliance for Europe. He is also a member of the Steering Committee responsible for Stroke Action Plan implementation. In 2020, Prof. Mikulik established the Czech Stroke Research Network STROCZECH, which is the first disease-oriented network aimed at developing and conducting multi-center academic clinical trials in the Czech Republic. Currently, twenty stroke centers participate in this network. The Professor has published more than 150 articles in renowned journals and has participated in many national and international research projects. In 2017, Prof. Mikulik received the Spirit of Excellence Award from the ESO and ANGELS Initiative for his commitment to excellence in stroke care.

Neurovascular Pathophysiology
María Ángeles Moro, Full Professor of Pharmacology at Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), joined the Spanish Centre for Cardiovascular Research (CNIC) in November 2019 as the Neurovascular Pathophysiology Group leader (https://www.cnic.es/en/investigacion/neurovascular-pathophysiology). Dr. Moro also co-leads the Neurovascular Research Unit (hwww.ucm.es/uin/), with sites at UCM and Health Research Institute “12 de Octubre” (https://imas12.es/en/research/neurosciences/neurovascular-research/). She participates in several consortia such as the Spanish Neurovascular Network (INVICTUS; http://www.renevas.es/) and the Leducq Foundation Grant “Stroke-Impact” (https://stroke-impact.org/). Dr. Moro’s group studies key questions in stroke and vascular cognitive impairment by applying different models and novel technologies, with the final aim to translate findings to patients. Her laboratory has established relevant paradigms of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and of the different nosological entities that account for cognitive decline driven by cardiovascular risk factors. She has published extensively in the area of neuroscience and neurological sciences especially in the neurovascular research field (stroke). Her scientific production includes more than 170 JCR and PubMed papers with more than 10400 total citations and “h-index” of 60/70 (WOS/Google Scholar, June-2021). The complete list of publications can be found at www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/myncbi/maria%20angeles.moro%20sanchez.1/bibliography/public/, Scopus, Orcid and Google Scholar.
