Mission: The peripheral nerve society is an international organization of physicians and scientists working together to develop and provide the best treatments for people who have peripheral nerve diseases. This goal is realized by cooperation - supporting research, training scientists and healthcare professionals, setting standards of care, creating new treatments, and facilitating clinical trials.
Programs: The society sponsors scientific meetings where scientists discuss advances in understanding the basic biology and function of the peripheral nervous system - the nature of nerve injury and repair, and how this knowledge might be applied to care for patients with genetic, traumatic, toxic, or metabolic nerve disease.
the society publishes the journal of the peripheral nervous system, which is a peer reviewed scientific publication whose major goal is to disseminate new knowledge on all scientific and clinical information regarding the peripheral nervous system.
