We are happy to welcome you to the young section of the EPNS! The initiative to form a section of young EPNS members came from the EPNS Board, and the founding meeting of the Young EPNS Committee took place in November 2020.

Our main objectives are:

• To make the EPNS known and familiar to every young professional starting out or already working in the field of paediatric neurology
• To make the resources that EPNS already offers noticeable and available, and enable young members to take the most advantage of them
• To establish and develop missing resources targeting young members’ needs
• To raise the voice of the young members in the activities and official organs of EPNS and other neurology related societies
• To meet and connect the members of the young EPNS and other societies, on a professional and personal level

The ultimate goal is to reinforce the professional growth of early career paediatric neurologists, as well as the growth of the field of paediatric neurology itself in Europe and beyond — which consequentially represents the best possible future for our patients.

If you are young and a member of EPNS, you are warmly welcome to participate in the ongoing activities.

If you are not already an EPNS member, membership is open to all paediatric neurologists or trainees and colleagues in related fields. There are substantially discounted EPNS membership fees for trainees, and it is very easy to join the EPNS — all you need to do is complete the online application form. Then, once you are an EPNS member, you can join the Young EPNS!

If you want to learn more and be actively involved in the activities of the YEPNS Working Groups, like and follow our social media accounts, fill out the YEPNS free subscription form, or email us at yepns@epns.info.
