American Academy of Neurological and Orthopaedic Surgeons

About This Association

The American Academy of Neurological and Orthopaedic Surgeons (AANOS) is a scientific and educational association of orthopedists and neurosurgeons that was founded in 1976 in order to improve the quality of care provided to patients in these two major sub-specialty fields. To simply answer “Who we are?”, it would be best to brief our vision and goals from our perspective. This has been accomplished through setting high standards for training, credentialing and continuous surgical education as well as in the subsequent practice of orthopaedics and neurosurgery. Ongoing education is afforded through active participation in annual conferences and seminars, didactic and practical training, and through the peer reviewed Journal of Neurological and Orthopaedic Medicine and Surgery. Additional opportunities include sub-specialty and special interest meetings held throughout the year and sub-specialty focused workshops. Members have the privilege of publishing articles in the Journal, exchanging ideas and clinical experiences among surgeons, and opportunities for sharing innovative, open, unbiased, non-discriminatory, uncensored ideas in the medical and surgical field.
