This open access volume presents select proceedings of 2025 International Conference on Engineering Management and Safety Engineering (EMSE 2025) will be held on 21-23 March 2025 in Nanjing, China. With a focus on the latest challenges and opportunities facing engineering management and safety engineering today, the conference aims to bring together scholars, industry experts, and policy makers from home and abroad to discuss and exchange advanced theoretical research, best practices, and emerging technologies. Being an interdisciplinary platform, the conference will cover multiple dimensions of engineering management, including project planning, implementation, compliance, and post-assessment. Safety engineering topics will also be highlighted, involving safety management, risk assessment, case studies and implementation of safety regulations and standards, and the effectiveness of safety training. This international academic conference is expected to provide new perspectives and references for the development of project management and safety engineering, and at the same time to promote the close cooperation between academia and practice, contributing wisdom and motivation for the enhancement and innovation of the industry.

Neuroepidemiology is a branch of epidemiology involving the study of neurological disease distribution and determinants of frequency in human populations. Neuroepidemiology has been perceived for a long time as a science of incidence, prevalence, risk factors, natural history and prognosis of neurological disorders. However, the other integral part of neuroepidemiology is experimental neuroepidemiology, which is research based on clinical trials of effectiveness or efficacy of various interventions in neurological disorders. Neuroepidemiological researches have been conducted since 1960’s, with the development of epidemiological methodology and advance of the clinical neurology. Most improvement of neuroepidemiology was in western countries, largely in US and European countries. This study field has been developed quite late in resourcelimited areas, where 60% of world’s populations are living in. Disease burden of neurological disorders, such as stroke, epilepsy, migraine, neurodegenerated diseases (AD, PD), multiple sclerosis (MS), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), are extremely heavy in low and middle income countries (LAMICs), especially with the increasing aging population in these regions. Because of their progressive and disabling nature, these neurological disorders have major adverse personal, social, and economic consequences. Prevention and early detection are critical, because there are no cures and the clinical diagnosis typically occurs after substantial and often irreversible neuronal loss.
