About YNF

The Young Neurologists Forum (YNF) has emerged as an integral part of the expanding body of the Indian Academy of Neurology, comprising nearly one-third of its membership set. This segment hence represents the very future of Indian neurology! It is apparent from this that, as chairperson of the YNF, the task at hand over the coming year is simultaneously exciting and challenging.


We envision the YNF at the forefront of all IAN activities, ranging from academic to extra-academic. We aim to increase its membership by leaps and bounds to incorporate into its fold all the young neurologists of India, and promote active participation of its members in YNF and other IAN activities. We also believe that the YNF can be a vital platform to provide a career development pathway to young neurologists. For this, we have the help of a dynamic core team of active members, dedicated to the YNF mandate and its vision. After all, team work makes the dream work!


Aims

  • To further the professional development of young people in the IAN and to equitably expand the involvement of junior women and men from all regions of India.
  • To provide networking and educational opportunities tailored to young people, and working to increase their involvement in IAN meetings, conferences and other educational activities.
  • To attract young people from across India to neurology
  • Promote the involvement of young people in neurology
  • Encourage the participation of young people in IAN educational activities and conferences.

Mission & Vision

To build a resilient, enthused and futuristic leadership and workforce in clinical neurology in India.
