MOUNT ROYAL, N.J., June 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- At the American Headache Society (AHS) 61st Annual Scientific Meeting, leading researchers and clinicians specializing in migraine, cluster headache, post-traumatic headache, and other types of headache will present groundbreaking data on the basic and clinical science of these extraordinarily common and disabling diseases. Exciting advances in the treatment of migraine and cluster headache will be highlighted at the meeting, which takes place July 11 – July 14, 2019 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Dr. Andrew Charles, the Chair of the Scientific Program Committee for the meeting, will highlight some of the data being showcased during a Facebook Live event taking place on Thursday, July 11, 2019 at 9:00 am PDT/12:00 pm EDT. Join the conversation at: https://www.facebook.com/ahsheadache/
"The American Headache Society is honored to provide this forum for researchers and clinicians at the forefront of a tremendous sea change in the understanding and treatment of migraine and other headache disorders," said American Headache Society CEO Howard Rosen. "We look forward to welcoming more than 1,000 specialists from around the world to share ideas and experiences at our Annual Meeting, which will showcase more than 320 accepted scientific abstracts."
"We have entered a dramatically new era in headache medicine, in which new insights into the causes and consequences of migraine and other headache disorders have led to the development of remarkable new treatments," said Dr. Andrew Charles. "The data presented at the 61st AHS Annual Scientific Meeting will highlight our incredible progress including advances in treatment with anti-CGRP and neuromodulation devices, which are all part of the enthusiasm and optimism seen in our field today."
Migraine is one of the most common of all causes of disability worldwide, and represents a tremendous burden on individuals, families and healthcare systems. The diverse scientific and clinical data to be presented at the AHS Annual Scientific Meeting will bring us closer to the common goal of reducing this burden.
The AHS has a longstanding history of sponsoring innovative science, healthcare provider education and extensive involvement of its members in leading the most pivotal clinical trials. AHS is committed to improving the lives of those with migraine and works closely in conjunction with the American Migraine Foundation, a patient education and research arm founded by AHS in 2010.

About Migraine
Migraine is a disabling neurological disease that affects more than 37 million women, men, and children in the United States. Migraine impacts one in four households, one in five women, one in sixteen men and one in eleven children in the United States. Globally, migraine affects one billion people. In fact, the World Health Organization recognizes migraine as one of the top ten most disabling diseases in the world. Living with migraine is disabling and tends to impact individuals in their most prime years of life. The debilitating nature of migraine is mostly caused by its symptoms, which can vary from person to person and from one migraine attack to another. Migraine attacks may include symptoms like nausea, sensitivity to light, sensitivity to odors, skin sensitivity, fatigue, mood change, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, changes in speech, neck pain and changes in vision (aura) that may include seeing spots, stars, lines, flashing lights, and zigzag lines. Unlike other chronic illnesses, migraine does not have a test that will lead to a diagnosis. Alongside the many physicians and advanced practice providers, patient advocates and patient advocacy organizations are working each day to ensure those living with migraine have an accurate diagnosis, proper treatment plans, and are driving awareness to ensure research is appropriately focused on finding targeted therapies. The goals of the physicians, advanced practice providers and patient advocates supporting those living with migraine are to ensure that no person living with migraine is alone and that they have access to accurate information and credible resources.
About the American Headache Society
The American Headache Society (AHS) is a professional society of healthcare providers dedicated to the study and treatment of headache and face pain. The Society's objectives are to promote the exchange of information and ideas concerning the causes and treatments of headache and related painful disorders. Educating physicians, health professionals and the public and encouraging scientific research are the primary functions of this organization. AHS activities include an annual scientific meeting, a comprehensive headache symposium, regional symposia for neurologists and family practice physicians, and publication of the journal Headache. More information can be found at www.americanheadachesociety.org. In 2010 AHS founded the American Migraine Foundation (AMF) to provide access to information and resources for individuals living with migraine, as well as their loved ones. AMF is dedicated to the advancement of research and awareness surrounding migraine, with a mission to mobilize a community for patient support and advocacy, as well as drive and support impactful research that translates into treatment advances for patients with migraine and other disabling diseases that cause severe head pain. Patients can learn more, find help and get connected by visiting www.americanmigrainefoundation.org.
