Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to the 38th Annual Meeting of the Turkish Neurosurgical Society, which we will organize between 10-13 April 2025. I am very happy and honored to invite you to the Scientific Congress on behalf of our Board of Directors.

We have decided to hold the next national congress at Rixos Sungate Hotel, taking into account the criteria that we always prioritize, such as the satisfaction of our members, feedback, budget-quality balance, physical suitability of the hotel for the congress, and general satisfaction.

We determined our congress theme as 'Crossing Boundaries' because we wanted to discuss the developments in the world, the areas where our profession expands, the applications with potential and expand our horizons together, apart from our classical knowledge and practices. For this reason, many new topics and applications will be included in the scientific program, and these developments will be conveyed to us by our young colleagues.

In line with the feedback from our members, the number of halls and sessions will be reduced compared to previous years in our congress to be held next year. 'How Do I Do It?' video sessions and discussion panels, which attracted a lot of attention in our previous congress, will continue.

This year, studies that we think are important among the oral presentations other than the papers of the year will be selected and discussed in a separate session moderated by our senior professors.

Your suggestions and contributions for a congress program with a high level of science are very valuable to us.

As in previous congresses, we will continue to present innovations and perspectives at the international level by inviting experienced foreign speakers.

On the one hand, you meet with the most competent names in their fields outside our field
On the other hand, we strive to prepare a rich and colorful social program for you to have a pleasant time.

We continue to work for a pleasant and useful congress where we will be together with our friends again, strengthen our family ties, and we look forward to April.

I would like to express my respects with the hope of being together with health and happiness at the most important scientific and social meeting of the members of the Turkish Neurosurgical Society.

Prof. Dr. Hakan Emmez
,President of the Turkish Neurosurgical Society
