Extended Abstracts from the Second Meeting of the Federation of European Societies of Neuropsychology

From 22–24 September 2010 the Second Meeting of the Federation of European Societies of Neuropsychology was held at the Royal Tropical Institute in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The aim of the conference was to provide a meeting place for neuropsychologists, clinicians as well as researchers, from all over Europe. About 450 participants from 17 European countries gathered to present their research and exchange ideas on brain behaviour relationships. Some of the best contributions are presented here as extended abstracts in the proceedings of this meeting. We are grateful to the editors of Behavioural Neurology, Stefano Cappa and Argye Hillis-Trupe, for making this possible. The Federation of the European Societies of Neuropsychology was founded in 2008 with the objective to further scientific and professional issues within the field of neuropsychology including cognitive neuropsychology, clinical neuropsychology, behavioural neurology, neuroimaging, and neuropsychological rehabilitation. The organisation of periodical scientific meetings is an important instrument to achieve that aim. The second meeting of our young Society was locally organised by the Dutch Neuropsychological Society, supported by the ESN-board , the ESN-scientific advisory board, and the Local Organising Committee. Many thanks to all of you who contributed to its success. I also would like to thank all participants who made a scientific contribution to this conference, either by poster, individual, or symposium presentation. I hope that you will enjoy browsing through these thematically organised proceedings and I certainly hope to see you again on our future meetings.
