Welcome Message

It is not about the idea. It is about making the idea happen! Echoing this maxim, the genesis of World Skull Base Foundation Fellowship Diplomas was laid in 2017. What began as an idea, gathered strength by the tremendous interest that it generated in the medical fraternity. The event has grown beyond expectations bringing together specialists from various countries and I would like to express my sheer excitement and enthusiasm that the World Skull Base Foundation family is growing. Skull Base Surgery involves skills in Neurosurgery, Otology, Head & Neck Surgery, Facial Plastics, Hearing and other neural rehabilitation. Gaining expertise in all these areas is an arduous task for a specialist focused in any one of these areas. Hence, for long, Skull Base Surgery has not been practiced in its entirety and it is also the reason why it lacks a structured training programme in most countries. It is this that we hope to address with these Fellowship Courses: to provide a structured curriculum based training programme in both Lateral and Anterior Skull Base Surgery. World Skull Base Foundation Fellowship Courses will be held in Lateral and Anterior Skull Base Surgery every year, promising an academic extravaganza fully equipped with the best curated cadavers and world class dissection infrastructure Lateral & Anterior Skull Base Fellowship Diplomas includes over 70 topics, 40 Hours of dissections, workshops and 40 Hours of lectures, making it one of the largest dissections courses in the world. World Skull Base Foundation Courses have received overwhelming responses since their inception and are showing signs of a long journey forward. We look forward to welcoming you all at Bangalore and will ensure that you will enjoy the course as much we have enjoyed bringing this together for you!
