This course is a presentation of minimally invasive endoscopic techniques for the anterior skull base and pituitary fossa. Experts will present the anatomical, pathophysiological, and technical aspects of surgery with risks, benefits, and complications. Teaching is through hands-on cadaveric dissection with a 1:2 faculty to delegate ratio and lecture/video presentations.

A three day conference on Syringomyelia, Chiari malformations, and the surgical complications of Ehlers Danlos. The abstract centre is now open, and closes 28 April 2025.

A course on recognising, anticipating, and managing common complications. Career discussions planned with bespoke neuropsychology and clinical moulages. Aimed mainly at early neurosurgery doctors (ST1-ST4 equivalent). Contact: Amir-Saam Youshani, Ahmad Ali - [email protected]

Neurosurgical trainees are often faced with difficult cases and scenarios, which can be complex and challenging. This course aims to provide expertise and additional skills on how to deal with these complex issues. The course is aimed at neurosurgical trainees/fellows in their early-mid level neurosurgery training. Event contact: [email protected]

Paediatric neurosurgical rotation or on-call can be daunting due to lack of patient exposure and conditions. It’s crucial for trainees to be equipped with the fundamentals of managing patients to safeguard and improve patient care. This course will enable ST1-ST6 and ACP’s the opportunity to optimise and enhance their learning in this area. For more information please email: [email protected]

During this 2.5-day course, participants will explore the trajectory, morphology, and functional anatomy of major white matter tracts, cortical structures and subcortical brain connectivity through hands-on white matter dissection labs, DTI-based tractography session, and interactive lectures. Additionally, participants will be introduced to brain mapping techniques, fMRI, neuroanesthesia and neuropsychological considerations.
