Abstract
This seminar will focus on the extraordinary shift in migraine research during the last 4 decades with the discovery of the trigeminovascular system (TVS) and it’s major impact on pathophysiology and treatment. Compelling evidence supporting the importance of TVS, cortical spreading depression and parameningeal inflammation will be explored as will the implications of newly discovered microvascular channels within the meninges on an attack.
