We are calling on all clinical and research professionals worldwide who care about childhood stroke and cerebrovascular disease to join us!

IPSO is now utilizing a Membership Management Software called Your Membership (YM). All IPSO members must login into the new IPSO YM membership portal to have access to IPSO’s new membership database. If you are already an IPSO member, but have not used our new portal, you will need to reset your password to have access to the IPSO Membership portal. Please login through this link.

Starting November 1st, 2024 membership renewals will open for the 2025 year with the rates outlined below. With our new membership database, there is now an option to setup an auto-renew option or register for both the 2025 and 2026 year at once. If you are renewing your IPSO membership, please make sure to login before you proceed with the renewal process. 

The IPSO Membership Year is January to December. We do not offer a pro-rated membership rate at this time. We will notify current IPSO members and post on our website when membership rates will increase.
