A One-Day Symposium Made possible by Boulder
Neurosurgical Associates.


Dear Colleague:

I am delighted to extend to you a very warm invitation to the 4th annual Boulder Neurosurgical Associates symposium. This very stimulating scientific program will cover a wide range of topics in the treatment of cranial and spinal disorders. Our aim is to advance the understanding of cranial and spinal disorders, improve clinical management, encourage research, and foster collaboration in the medical community. This course offers 7.5 hours of AMA category 1 CME credit and is a one-day advanced educational seminar for anyone involved in the care of neurosurgical patients including primary care physicians, surgeons, interventional physiatrists, chiropractors, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, physical therapist, and anybody who has an interest in this subject. Participants will have an opportunity to learn and discuss recent advances across the entire spectrum of therapies. The topics on cerebrovascular and skull base surgery, head injury, dynamic motion stabilization and adjacent level degeneration treatment, spine tumors and their surgical or radiosurgical management, and even spinal applications of regenerative medicine will be presented this year. Our exhibitors are going to share their knowledge and expertise on current technology, products, services, and provide hands-on product demonstrations. We are very happy and fortunate to see this annual event grow so fast, both in size and scientific works, and are confident that the program this year will provide you with a unique opportunity for intellectual and personal interactions. This symposium is being made possible by educational grants from multiple sponsors and Boulder Neurosurgical Associates, an independent organization dedicated advancing expertise in the management of neurosurgical and orthopedic disorders and the practice of medicine and surgery by integrating clinical experience with the best available technology and research information.

We look forward to welcoming our friends and colleagues,



Alan Villavicencio, M.D.
Program Chairman
