The Turkish Neurological Society is scientifically very active and has high standards of education.
The WFN was formed in Brussels in 1957 as an association of national neurological societies. Today the WFN represents 120 professional societies in all regions of the world. The mission of the WFN is to foster quality neurology and brain health worldwide, a goal we seek to achieve by promoting global neurological education and training, with the emphasis placed firmly on under-resourced parts of the world.

The purpose is to experience the Turkish neurological system in an international environment, meet new colleagues and foster future cooperation.
