Join us for an extraordinary opportunity to hear from Professor Madjid Samii, Founder and President of the International Neuroscience Institute in Hanover, Germany, and Beijing, as he delivers his talk: 'Pushing Boundaries and Forging New Directions: The Creation of the Subspecialty of Skull Base Surgery.'
A true pioneer in the field, Professor Samii has revolutionised neurosurgery through his groundbreaking work in micro-neurosurgery and the development of skull base surgery. With a distinguished career spanning decades, Professor Samii has held leadership roles in numerous esteemed organisations, including the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS), where he now serves as Honorary President and Ambassador for Africa. His commitment to advancing neurosurgery worldwide has been recognised with prestigious accolades, including the Madjid Samii Medal of Honour, awarded biennially to neurosurgeons for lifetime achievements, and the Chinese Friendship Award.
