JPNI 17th Annual Symposium: Current Techniques in the Treatment of Cranial and Spinal Disorders
After a turbulent 2020, this year’s 17th Annual Current Techniques in the Treatment of Cranial and Spinal Disorders Symposium was once again be held in person on Saturday, October 30th, 2021 at the Omni Interlocken Resort in Broomfield, CO. We had an amazing turn out both with our sponsors and our attendees. It was great to see everyone in person again and we look forward to doing so again in 2022. The 18th Annual symposium date is yet to be finalized but when it has been we will send out a notification!
This live educational activity is jointly provided by the Colorado Medical Society (CMS), Justin Parker Neurological Institute (JPNI) and Boulder Neurosurgical & Spine Associates (BNA).
The symposium is a one-day extensive seminar that will bring together a diverse panel of experts to discuss the latest advancements and treatment considerations in cranial, neurosurgical, and orthopedic spine technology. We are currently finalizing this year’s agenda, and topics so far include Alzheimer’s advances, robots and technology in the spine, neurosurgical recreational injuries of Colorado, focused ultrasound for essential tremor, and more.
