N2 - Stroke recovery and rehabilitation is a dynamic scientific field. 2016 is an exciting year for scientists and patients, with several breakthroughs in both benchwork research as well as the clinical research, as highlighted above. Looking into 2017, the priorities of stroke recovery shouldbe: (1) to better understand the pathophysiology and factors underlying the recovery trajectory, 47 especially in the first 90 days after stroke during which the majority of improvement occurs; (2) to identify the novel targets; (3) to maximally preserve, protect and recover brain function by harnessing brain plasticity; (4) to ensure basic and translational science research are closely engaged and to address the unmet needs in clinical practice and (5) to translate restorative poststroke therapeutics through collaborative, rigorous, transparent research efforts.
