MINS 4th Annual Conference: Improving Outcomes with Knowledge

The Minimally Invasive Neurosurgical Society (MINS) was established to promote minimally invasive neurosurgery that improves patient outcomes. The goal of MINS is to provide a forum for neurosurgical education, training, case discussion, and research on minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques. The MINS Conference will allow for an intimate meeting venue to discuss innovative minimally invasive neurosurgical approaches. The MINS Conference will be a national meeting with invitations sent to neurosurgeons around the country. Additionally, international neurosurgeons will be encouraged to attend. A variety of vendors will be asked to participate to present new and innovative technologies that enable surgeons to perform these procedures safely and effectively. Abstract submission to the meeting will be encouraged to foster clinical and basic science research, and critical patient outcomes analysis of minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques.

Plenary sessions will discuss the latest in minimally invasive neurosurgery, ideal patient selection, outcome analysis and operative nuances. Keynote addresses will be given by leaders in the field. The intimate setting will allow for small group case discussions between the experts and audience as well as establishment of collaborations between surgeons and participants. In short, this promises to be a meeting to remember.
