Purpose: Create a repository of 10-minute, general, non-technical talks on key topics that advance the mission of building and refining organized stroke systems of care in Massachusetts that can be used for continuing (interprofessional) education (e.g. physician staff meetings, annual nursing education, EMS annual refreshers, etc.) and advocacy (e.g. policymakers, executives, general public).
