Endorsed by the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS), the 3rd Oporto Microneurosurgical Course will take place from 4–6 February 2027 at ICBAS – University of Porto. Designed as an intensive hands-on training programme, the course focuses on refining microneurosurgical skills and surgical ergonomics through highly personalised teaching in a small-group setting. With a maximum of eight participants, training progresses from microvascular dissection and anastomosis in animal models to advanced techniques using live rat models, complemented by dedicated ergonomic coaching. EANS endorsement recognises the course’s contribution to high-quality neurosurgical education and lifelong professional development, offering residents and practising neurosurgeons a focused environment to strengthen technical precision and microsurgical performance.
