Last weekend at the International Neurology and Neurosurgery Conference (INNC) 2026 was truly special. I feel so grateful to have worked with an incredible team to bring our vision for this year’s INNC to life. It was so wonderful to see so many fellow medical students, as well as students from related disciplines, and early-career doctors, come together to learn from one another, share ideas, and connect over a shared interest in neurology and neurosurgery. A huge thank you to our speakers, workshop faculty, and judges for sharing your time, expertise, and enthusiasm, and to the dedicated committee who worked so hard behind the scenes. Thank you to my co-director Devanandh Murugesan, and also a special thank you to Gladys Ng and Fahm Deen, PhD, last year’s INNC directors, for your guidance, support, and hard work throughout - I’ve learned so much from working alongside you both, and your contributions and ideas were invaluable in shaping this year’s conference.
