Ambassador for Epilepsy Awards

The Ambassador for Epilepsy Award of the International Bureau for Epilepsy and the International League Against Epilepsy is intended as recognition of outstanding international contributions to activities advancing the cause of epilepsy. The candidate must have made contributions above and beyond the call of duty, either voluntarily or professionally, in any scientific, clinical, educational or social support field of epilepsy.

Six people were presented with this honour during the Opening Ceremony of the 27th International Epilepsy Congress in Singapore. The award consists of an 'Ambassador for Epilepsy' pin and is intended to reflect peer recognition of individual contributions to the international cause of epilepsy.
