🚀 Live from Sydney! 🚀 Carlos Molina, Head of the Neurology Section at Hospital Universitari Vall d'Hebron and leader of UMBRELLA, has taken the stage at the 9th World Intracranial Hemorrhage Conference (WICH 2025) in Sydney, Australia! As part of the session HEADS Meeting – EVERY MINUTE COUNTS: A PARADIGM SHIFT IN ICH, Carlos joined Teresa Ullberg to discuss "Reorganising ICH systems of care and the use of AI" . 🧠💡 It's great to see #UMBRELLA's commitment to reshaping stroke care recognised on this fantastic platform! 👏 #StrokeCare #WICH2025

During Brain Awareness Week, we shared four key gaps in #stroke care, highlighting some of the major challenges in stroke management. 🧠 Through this, we unveiled the strategic approach #UMBRELLA is taking to address these critical issues. 👉 If you missed the insights, don’t worry!

🧠 #BrainAwarenessWeek has been an opportunity to highlight the key challenges in stroke care—and the innovative solutions driving progress in prevention, early diagnosis, faster treatment, and long-term recovery. A major challenge remains: the limited understanding of all stroke causes—a critical barrier to improving outcomes. 🚧 🤝 At Umbrella, we are committed to advancing research and innovation to bridge this gap. Watch the video to learn how we are tackling this challenge. Follow us as we reshape the future of stroke care in Europe!📲 #StrokePrevention #StrokeCare #InnovationInHealth Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) Stroke Alliance For Europe (SAFE)

🧠 #BrainAwarenessWeek At UMBRELLA, we are working alongside our partners at Stroke Alliance For Europe (SAFE) to address critical challenges in stroke care. Our mission is clear: to transform stroke care across Europe through innovation and collaboration. 🚀 🚨 One of the first key issues we are tackling is unequal access to treatment. Factors such as variability in #HealthcareInfrastructure, differences in national #StrokeProtocols, limited access to medicines and procedures, and disparities in rehabilitation services contribute to inconsistent patient outcomes across Europe. 👇 Learn how #UMBRELLA is taking an innovative approach to bridging this gap. Join us on our journey to revolutionise stroke care across Europe!📲 #BrainHealth #StrokeAwareness #InnovationInHealthcare

🧠 #BrainAwarenessWeek 👉 Personalised stroke treatment remains a significant challenge in healthcare. At UMBRELLA, we’re on a mission to change that—bringing innovation to stroke care across Europe. 🔬 🚀 Our approach is redefining how #stroke is treated, ensuring that patients receive the personalised care they need. 🎥 Watch our video to learn how we’re tackling this challenge!

🔬🧠 It’s #BrainAwarenessWeek! 🧠🔬 What does this mean? For one week each year, researchers and the global community shine a spotlight on the incredible progress in brain research—driving awareness, innovation, and advancements in brain health. 🤝 In collaboration with our partners at Stroke Alliance For Europe (SAFE), UMBRELLA will highlight how we are addressing critical challenges in #StrokeCare. As we embark on this ambitious project, our goal is to transform stroke care across Europe. 🚀 🚨 The first key issue: Delayed diagnosis. Timely diagnosis is crucial in stroke care, yet too many people experience life-altering delays. Watch our video to discover how UMBRELLA is tackling this challenge with an innovative approach. Be part of the movement to transform stroke care across Europe – follow our journey! 🌍 #BrainHealth #StrokeAwareness

Let’s make a difference together. 💡 #BrainAwarenessWeek #StrokeCare #UmbrellaProject Innovative Health Initiative (IHI)

🧠 1 in 4 people will suffer a stroke in their lifetime. When it comes to treatment, every second counts—because time is brain ⏱️ During a press meeting at the European Society of Radiology in Vienna, Austria, a line-up of speakers, partners of UMBRELLA, shared their perspectives on technology and patient pathways with the attending journalists. 💬 Prof. Robin Lemmens (KU Leuven), explained how a #FederatedLearning approach can transform stroke care by leveraging data in a secure and decentralised way. 💬 Michael Scheuering, PhD (Siemens Healthineers) highlighted mobile stroke units and an "angio-only" approach— #innovations that can cut crucial minutes from treatment timelines. 👉 The key takeaway? Collaboration and innovation is essential in driving progress and ensuring patients receive the best care—faster. Through the #UMBRELLAproject, we are paving the way for a smarter, more connected #strokecare system across Europe. 🚀 Join the conversation and help us make a difference in stroke care! #ECR2025 #HealthcareInnovation

Every year, over 1 million people in Europe suffer a stroke, and nearly 10 million live with its long-term impacts. Stroke is a leading cause of adult disability and accounts for approximately 460,000 deaths annually. 🚨 🧠 Funded with €27 million by the Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) and industry partners, the #UMBRELLAproject aims to revolutionise these statistics by: ✅ Leveraging AI and digital tools for faster diagnosis and improved treatment decisions. ✅ Standardising protocols to enhance outcomes, even in underserved areas. ✅ Advancing prevention by addressing strokes with unknown causes. Co-led by Vall d’Hebron Institute of Research (VHIR) - Vall d'Hebron Institut de Recerca and Siemens Healthineers, #UMBRELLA unites experts from hospitals, academia, and industry to save lives, reduce disability, and enhance quality of life for stroke patients across Europe. 💡 Follow us and subscribe to our newsletter to discover how we're revolutionising stroke care. 👉 Learn more on our website: https://loom.ly/-mC2PpI #StrokeCare #HealthcareInnovation #AIHealth #UMBRELLAProject EATRIS, Erasmus MC, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS, EURECAT, KU Leuven, CERN, Amsterdam UMC, Universitätsklinikum Hamburg Eppendorf, University of Basel, Universitätsspital Basel (USB), Stroke Alliance For Europe (SAFE), Actelion Pharmaceuticals Deutschland GmbH, Daiichi Sankyo España, AstraZeneca, The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson, Penumbra, Inc., Philips, Nicolab, NoraHealth, Teamit , TrianecT, Allm EMEA, Nacar Design, Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute - IDIBELL, Instituto Pedro Nunes, Neuravi.
