Twenty years of vascular neurology and acute stroke practice sit behind EUROSTROKES — and behind every project on this site.
Today
Dr. Safouris is Consultant Neurologist at CHIREC in Braine-l'Alleud, Belgium, and a vascular neurologist and stroke specialist of twenty years' standing. EUROSTROKES SRL, his Belgian company, is the entity through which his advisory, knowledge, and clinical-build work is contracted. His roles outside EUROSTROKES are kept strictly separate from its commercial work — how that separation operates is set out in How We Work.
Background
Before Belgium, he served as Director of the ESO-certified Stroke Unit at Metropolitan Hospital and as Assistant Professor of Neurology at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. That combination — running a certified unit, treating acute stroke, and teaching it — grounds the clinical and knowledge work he does now.
His clinical focus spans acute ischaemic stroke, endovascular therapy decision-making, neurosonology, and secondary prevention. In 2024 his team's work was recognised with the Angels Spirit of Excellence Award at ESOC.
Why "AI-native"
EUROSTROKES is built on a simple conviction: the next decade of stroke care will be defined less by individual tools and more by how clinical reasoning is organised around them. Imaging AI can now quantify a stroke in seconds — but the leap from a quantified scan to a confident bedside decision is still a human one, and it is under-supported. EUROSTROKES works on exactly that gap: the evidence layer, the methodology, and the partnerships that connect frontline care to the tools changing it.
That work takes three forms — a knowledge build (Livetextbook), a clinical practice (AI-native neurovascular consultation), and advisory work with stroke-technology companies — all described under Projects.
Engagements
All advisory and collaboration is contracted through EUROSTROKES SRL, Belgium (BE 1009.730.012). For enquiries, see Contact.
