Presented by the AHNS Curriculum Development & Maintenance Service in consultation with the Advanced Training Council, this series of Virtual Tumor Boards was created for AHNS-Accredited Fellowship programs in 2020 as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to maintain the level of education which the AHNS Fellows routinely receive during their training.
The scheduled sessions for the current Fellowship year are listed below – sessions are presented live to the AHNS Fellows, and the recording links will appear on this page as they are completed.
