Support our work
Our mission is to improve care of individuals with neurological disease throughout the world by support of education in neurosurgery, particularly via partnerships between established and emerging neurosurgical programs.
We provide hands-on training and education to neurosurgeons around the world. Our volunteer neurosurgeons and personnel spend months on-site, teaching techniques to local neurosurgeons and setting up neurosurgery residency programs.
Working side-by-side with neurosurgeons in low resourced countries is the best way to impart this knowledge. Passing this knowledge forward truly helps these surgeons and their patients in country.
