American Academy of Neurological Surgery (AANS) welcomes the Continental Association of African Neurosurgical Societies (CAANS) and European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS) as collaborating societies at the 2022 AANS Annual Scientific Meeting.

The main goals of the 2022 AANS Annual Scientific Meeting are to serve as a primary source of continuing medical education tailored specifically to the specialty, to advance neuroscience research, and to promote a climate conducive to excellence in clinical practice.

The 2022 AANS Annual Scientific Meeting is the ultimate resource for the transfer of scientific, technical, and intellectual information to the neurosurgical community.
