Welcome

Welcome to the SNOG – Northern Lights Neuroscience Symposium in Copenhagen spring 2026.

This symposium is organized as a collaboration between the Scandinavian Neuro-oncology (SNOG) symposia – the leading meeting in the field of neuro-oncology in the Nordic region and the NORTHERN LIGHTS NEUROSCIENCE SYMPOSIA – the leading Nordic meeting in the field of neuropathology.

Our symposium will be a multiprofessional interdisciplinary symposium that will make it possible to share cutting-edge results and foster collaborations that will bring our field forward in the fight against brain cancer.

We look forward to insightful discussions and inspiring connections in beautiful Copenhagen this spring.

Warm regards,
On behalf of the Organising Committee
Bjarne Winther Kristensen
