Dear Sociedad de Neurocirugia de Chile,

On behalf of course director Dr. Tracy Batchelor, we hope that you will forward this announcement and the link below to your Society’s members and colleagues. Our upcoming educational course in neuro-oncology is open to faculty, trainees, and nursing professionals. The course has a “live” virtual format and will be held July 23-25, 2025. The course is also archived, and attendees have 60 days to view the content on their own time and at their own pace. The course is accredited for continuing medical education credits.

Neuro-oncology is a rapidly evolving multi-disciplinary field, which involves the medical, radiation, and surgical management of pediatric and adult patients with primary and metastatic tumors of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). The field of neuro-oncology also encompasses neurogenetic syndromes, like neurofibromatosis, associated with nervous system tumors and various neurological complications of cancer and cancer treatments. In addition, modern molecular neuropathology and neuroradiology concepts are essential for accurate diagnosis and classification. This three-day CME course, the 5th Annual Update in Neuro-Oncology, is designed to provide an international audience with a comprehensive review of the diagnosis and management of pediatric and adult patients with primary and metastatic CNS and PNS tumors, specific neurogenetic syndromes, and neurological complications of cancer. The target audience consists of providers and trainees involved in the care of adult and pediatric neuro-oncology patients (neurologists, oncologists, radiation oncologists, neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuroradiologists, and neuropathologists). The course will also be of high relevance to nurse practitioners, physician assistants, psychologists, pharmacists, nurses, and industry professionals.

Students and trainees are eligible for a reduced registration fee by emailing okatsovskiy@bwh.harvard.edu.
