On October 21st was held a national symposium at Nobel Forum, Karolinska Institutet (KI) in Stockholm, Sweden. The topic of the day was "Mental and cognitive symptoms after stroke".
It was arranged by the Swedish Society for Psychiatry of the Elderly and the Drug Therapeutic Committee of Stockholm County.
At 12:00 was held the lecture "Man's best friend, Assistant dogs in stroke rehabilitation".
The lecture was held by the physician and researcher Finn Hjälmblink and dog handler Katja Thorman with IRD dog Learoy. Probably the first time a dog was invited as a "speaker" at KI!
