Neurology Rounds | CNS

national Neurology Grand Rounds

The Canadian Neurological Society (CNS) organizes the Canadian National Neurology Grand Rounds to highlight major clinical and research updates for Canadian neurologists, neurology learners, and researchers. These rounds take place four times per year and are held on Fridays at Noon ET / 9AM PT / 1PM AT. An email will be sent to the membership in advance of each session for pre-registration. While attendance is restricted to Canadian neurologists, trainees, and researchers, membership in the CNS or CNSF is not required. With the permission of speakers, sessions may be recorded for future viewing by CNSF members. 

The CNS Canadian National Neurology Grand Rounds is a self-approved group learning activity (section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, with an online record of attendance. These rounds provide an excellent opportunity to highlight faculty and exciting clinical and research programs at a national level. They also provide a wonderful opportunity for neurologists across Canada to interact and to facilitate collaborative opportunities.

If you or anyone at your Centre would like to give a presentation at the Neurology Grand Rounds, please contact dara-martin@cnsf.org.
