California Association of Neurological Surgeons (CANS) Annual Meeting

January 18-20, 2019
Universal City, CA

CANS President Langston Holly, MD
Featuring presentations from Johnese Spisso, President UCLA Health, Dr. Linda Liau Department of Neurosurgery Chair, and other UCLA Neurosurgery Faculty

This year’s meeting has an exciting agenda that will lead with a session on Head Trauma in Athletics. The short and long-term effects of sports related concussion have become an increasingly prevalent topic of conversation within various forms of media and households alike. Neurosurgeons play an important role in treating these patients, developing guidelines, and conducting traumatic brain injury research. We will discuss all sides of this debate, with a particular emphasis on youth sports.

We will follow this discussion with a session on Medical Litigation featuring lawyers, doctors and risk management officers. Several areas of interest include the manner in which the Electronic Health Record has changed the medicolegal landscape, as well as physician liabilities that are outside of routine patient care. There will be subsequent sessions that focus on leadership as well as how the November elections may change the delivery of Health Care.
