In this special Mind Moments episode, Lauren Sansing, MD, MS, FAHA, FANA, Professor of Neurology at ‪@yale‬ School of Medicine, joins the podcast to provide a clinical breakdown of the 2026 International Stroke Conference #ISC2026 and its implications for real-world stroke care. Sansing reflects on how this year’s meeting built on prior advances, highlighting expanded global collaboration, greater patient engagement, and a record number of clinical trials presented. The discussion explores which late-breaking studies may influence practice in the coming year, including data on secondary stroke prevention, adjunctive thrombolysis strategies, and evolving patient selection for thrombectomy in extended windows and large core infarcts. Sansing also reviews renewed momentum in neuroprotection research, key updates from the newly released acute ischemic stroke guidelines, emerging pediatric stroke data, and how the conference continues to shape the roadmap for 2027 and beyond.
