Society Prize Winners | CNSF Congress
CONGRATULATIONS to the 2025 Society Prize Winners!
The Canadian Neurological Sciences Federation is pleased to acknowledge the 2025 Society Prize Winners. Expanded abstracts submitted for a society prize are judged on merit, by a board of faculty members in each society. Judges were impressed by the high quality of this year's submissions.
Winners will be presenting their work at the CNSF Congress, during the Grand Rounds session on Thursday, June 12th between 9am and noon. Browse the 'CNSF Congress' 2025 Event App / online Program & Event Website, signage and/or emails for specific location.
The abstracts from these submissions, and all other CNSF accepted abstracts for the 2025 Congress, will be announced in the Neuro|News Annual Edition, and published within the CNSF Congress Abstract supplement within the Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences (CJNS).
