Global Neurotrauma Outcomes Study 1 (GNOS‐1)
Written by Dom Mahoney, MS
Trauma remains the leading cause of death among those under the age of 45, with brain injury playing a significant role in determining mortality. Traumatic brain injury (TBI), therefore, exerts a considerable burden on healthcare systems, with remarkable geographical differences in treatments. The WFNS has collaborated with the NHS National Institute for Health Research to comprehensively investigate the surgical management of TBI. This is the first worldwide study of this nature, and the investigators invite you and your unit to participate.

If you are a neurosurgery trainee or have been a consultant/attending for 10 years or less, the WFNS Young Neurosurgeons committee would like to hear from you. In order to best serve the needs of young neurosurgeons worldwide, we must first get to know them! This short survey is the first of many opportunities for the young neurosurgery community to voice their thoughts.
