The Southeast Europe Neurosurgical Society (SEENS, www.seens.eu) will be officially promoted at this Congress as the first and unique professional association of Southeastern European neurosurgeons.
The SEENS's primary activity will be to hold annual meetings, thus providing an excellent opportunity for all fellow neurosurgeons to share theirexpertise and to develop personal acquaintance with one another.
The Congress is also a great opportunity to celebrate two anniversaries: 90 years of Neurosurgery in Serbia, as well as 75 years of the Clinic forNeurosurgery at the Clinical Centre of Serbia.
The invited speakers will include the world's leading experts in the field of neurosurgery, who will contribute to the exchange of new knowledge and skills,so we may expect over 300 active participants in this Congress. This Congress will have the Patronage and Support of all important Institution of Republic of Serbia.
We are pleased to invite you to take an active part and present your work in this Congress, since our aim is to make its success our profession's success as well.

The Royal Palace in Dedinje was built between 1924 and 1929, on orders by King Alexander I, as the
official royal residence. The building of the White Palace, which is part of the Royal Palace complex,
was built to the wishes of King Aleksandar I as a residence for his sons. It was built from 1934 to
1937 to a design by the architect Aleksandar Đorđević. Today it is the home of the heir to the throne,
Aleksandar II and his family. It is a large impressive villa of white stone in the Serbian-Byzantine style.

Gratian and Theodosius.

The civiliansettlement next to the encampment during the rule of Hadrian (117-138) gained the status ofa municipium, a town with a high degree of autonomy.
