NCS is committed to promoting medical education and the exchange of scientific information in order to support our primary mission—improving care for patients with life-threatening brain injuries. In addition, NCS is committed to promoting collaboration between medical specialties and between healthcare providers in different parts of the world.
To this end, NCS will actively endorse medical meetings that are consistent with the vision and mission of the society and will partner with other medical societies and organizations in order to create scientific and educational meetings that pertain to neurocritical care. The two levels of involvement are endorsement and joint sponsorship.
