Our Neurospine Foundation Research Team recently submitted 7 abstracts to the 2024 AO Spine Global Spine Congress (GSC) in Bangkok Thailand scheduled for the 15-18th of May 2024. We are pleased to announce that all 7 abstracts were accepted for a combination of oral presentations, rapid fire presentations and e-posters.
For the 15th annual year, GSC is an annual meeting that provides an opportunity for internationally leading spine care professionals to meet and connect, to enhance their expertise and exchange ideas. Here they will learn about the latest contemporary innovations, technologies and research, from fellow surgeons, industry partners and medical research professionals.
At Neurospine Foundation, we pride ourselves in engaging in and collaborating on ethically sound and transformative research projects. Therefore, not only will the 2024 GSC create a unique cultural networking experience for our Neurospine Institute research and surgical team, but it will also allow us to continue to contribute to the scope of spinal research and innovations on a global platform.
Our projects and their corresponding formats are listed below.
