The 7th Congress will be organized by Chinese Neurosurgical Society chaired by Professor Jizong Zhao of Beijing Tiantan Hospital . It will be the largest regional neurosurgical meeting in Asia in 2008.

With the rapid advancing in recent ten years, the ACNS has integrated and focused closely with many subjects and new technology, new appliances and imaging diagnosis, which extremely broadened the indications of surgical therapy in neurology. In the meanwhile, it is also bringing us many new problems and challenges. The main objective of the congress is to offer a high-level communication platform, providing the opportunity to extend and to enrich the field of development of Asian neurosurgery. the congress also invites the international professionals to submit abstracts for oral and poster presentations. Attendance at this comprehensive congress is the most efficient way to keep current in our rapidly advancing field.
