This umbrella body for the Neurosciences in Malaysia aims to gather together all professionals and allied health professionals in related fields to encourage activities promoting greater interest in the ever-widening field of Neurosciences. We hope to attract new members in a continuous wave that seeks to inject eternal enthusiasm and bring about constructive and meaningful development of this very special branch of science. By working together, we will strengthen existing relationships while building new networks not just locally but also regionally and internationally. We also aim to provide a forum whereat the public may be updated on important neurological issues.

We are a Society that was founded in 1989 and is a non-profit organization geared to disseminating the knowledge of neurosciences amongst the professionals and the public. Our members come from varied disciplines related to the neurosciences namely, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuropaediatricians, neuropathologists, neuro-anatomists, neuro-pharmacologists, neuro-biochemists, neuro-psychologists and the like. There are also a sizeable number of medical laboratory technologists and nurses from the various neuro-disciplines who are our Associate Members.

Among other things, the Society is strongly committed towards teaching and the credentialing of our young specialists. We have also formed subspecialty councils to focus and develop their areas of specialty. At present, we have an Epilepsy Subspecialty Council, a Stroke Subspecialty Council and a Chapter of Child Neurology & Developmental Paediatrics. New subspecialty councils will be established as and when necessary.

We are proud to say that the Society is a member of the World Federation of Neurology (WFN), the ASEAN Neurological Associations (ASNA) and is affiliated to the International Brain Research Organization (IBRO).
