The course will use high-fidelity cranial and spinal models to allow candidates to put the knowledge they have gained into practice.

This is an excellent opportunity for foundation doctors and SHOs to gain an insight into basic neurosurgical techniques. The course also allows junior neurosurgical trainees the chance to refine their skills.
