The European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS) is a fast-developing independent association, both of European neurosurgical societies and of individual neurosurgeons from all over the world.

Our objective is to enable our members to enhance the care they deliver to their patients by facilitating the exchange of scientific information at the highest level. In pursuit of this goal, we arrange a wide range of meetings, symposia and educational courses, including the European Congress of Neurosurgery and the highly regarded European Training Courses in Neurosurgery.

We recognize the huge part that e-learning plays in the advancement of scientific knowledge and are delighted to be able to provide a comprehensive online library of neurosurgical material via the EANS Academy. At the same time, that there is no substitute for “being there”, and therefore offer a growing number of fellowship and observership programmes, both on our own account and in collaboration with selected partners.

We are delighted that both our membership and the number of participants at our major meetings and events continue to grow and are keen to work together with industry partners to bring the most exciting and innovative products and techniques to our audience via both exhibition and sponsorship. We look forward to seeing many of our members in Barcelona.
