AANS Annual Scientific Meeting in San Diego

April 9, 2027

April 9 – 12, 2027, Navigating the Impossible The theme of the 2027 AANS Annual Scientific Meeting, Navigating the Impossible, reflects a defining truth of neurosurgery. Every day, neurosurgeons confront complexity and uncertainty, testing the boundaries of what is known and what is possible. More than a technical challenge, the specialty captures the human spirit of practice by advancing innovation and translating discovery into care. It requires a unique blend of expertise and intuition, especially when making critical decisions in moments where the path forward is not clearly defined Through groundbreaking science and shared experience, we will explore how neurosurgeons push past limitations and redefine what is achievable for patients. Join AANS in San Diego as we navigate the impossible together. Click here for more information
