A well-established course with a practical emphasis, for anyone with an interest in neurology.  This annual course has now been running in Edinburgh for over 40 years.

The programme has a practical approach that will appeal to everyone with a passing interest in neurology, whether trainees, young(ish) consultants or seasoned veterans. This "no nonsense" approach, instilled by its founder Charles Warlow, is the central attraction of the course, together with its own unique brand of informality and Scottish conviviality.

Programme

The course covers a wide variety of topics from Edinburgh and UK-wide expert speakers - 2026 programme below:
