Who are we?
Our organization has been advancing knowledge and improving practice in the neurosciences for 60 years. We bring together the art and science of neurology, neurosurgery, neuroradiology, neuro-oncology, neuropathology, neuropsychiatry, physiatry, and related fields. We learn from each other about the latest in research and practice, gaining academic and clinical wisdom.
Your membership enables us to continue and expand our unique blend of academic programs and fellowship that benefits all of us. Your renewal also helps keep our member and mailing data base up to date, so that you can be notified about upcoming programs.
What does SFNS offer to its members?

Members receive discounts on the Annual Meeting registration and all evening dinner meetings and can obtain a total of up to 20 CME credits throughout the year without ever leaving the Bay Area.
To quote Past President Dr. Eric Denys, "The Society has a long tradition of combining scientific excellence and social interaction with peers, allowing us to share the pleasures and challenges of life. There is absolutely no better forum to meet colleagues, whom you otherwise may know by name only."
Member benefits include:
Member discounts on high quality continuing medical education opportunities, such as a $80 discount off registration fees to the Society's Annual Meeting (
A discount off registration fees to five - six dinner programs spread out in the Greater SF Bay Area throughout the year. Each meeting is accredited for 1 hour of CME and the topics and speakers cover a broad range of the most current issues in the neurosciences.
The San Francisco Neurological Society holds the shared knowledge of members with diverse and extensive expertise in the neurosciences. Information gained from peers will enhance your practice and help you discover solutions to your clinical and research challenges.
