The Boston Declaration, launched at the 2025 American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) meeting, is a global pledge by neurosurgical societies and clinicians to expand equitable, safe, and affordable neurosurgical care worldwide. It calls for more than intention. It calls for commitment.
NeuroRounds stepped forward twice in Boston to publicly affirm how we will contribute to advancing neurosurgical education and global care. When a medical school or training program sees NeuroRounds on your CV, it signals something unmistakable: you chose to go beyond interest. You chose rigor. You chose responsibility.
Make 2026 the year you got serious.
Whether you’re pre-med, a medical student, resident, or healthcare professional in any specialty, you’ll see how information becomes diagnosis, how options become decisions, and how teams communicate under pressure. You’ll practice what actually matters: structured thinking, precise presentation, and evidence-based reasoning; so the child who wanted to be a doctor becomes the clinician you’re becoming.
Join us Tuesday, March 3 • 7:00 AM ET
