Stroke is the second most common cause of death in the world especially in the ageing population.1 Thrombolysis and intravascular embolectomy are the main treatment and populated rapidly.23 However,the benefi-ciary is still limited because the mechanistic studies are behind.The basic research on stroke is improved because of new devices,novel techniques and the development of other disciplines.4 The update of a broad range of topics related to stroke is a widely appreciated feature.In order to improve the understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms of stroke,the 2nd Summit of Chinese Basic Science Research on Stroke 2018 has been held in Beijing,China.
