NREF Educational Offerings

In cooperation with the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS), the NREF offers free Resident Education Courses to provide advanced training in areas not always covered within neurosurgical residency.

Since its inception, the NREF has funded 79 courses attended by more than 2,000 residents and fellows, with thousands more viewing presentations online. Space is limited at these courses, so several courses are available online, free of charge to neurosurgical residents around the world. Each program consists of several hours of didactic lectures based on the course topic.
