Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Education
  • Virtual Congresses

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted traditional continuing medical education and professional development.
  • The 2020 International Web-Based Neurosurgery Congress (2020 IWBNC) was established as the first virtual neurosurgical congress.
  • This article details the experience of designing and organizing the 2020 IWBNC.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the methodology and experience of organizing a large-scale virtual neurosurgery congress.
  • To present the 2020 IWBNC as a successful model for web-based academic meetings.
  • To highlight the innovative double-room method used for the congress.

Main Methods:

  • The congress was organized in 4 weeks by the Center for Research and Training in Neurosurgery (CIEN) using eight specialized committees.
  • A strict double-room method was implemented, utilizing two virtual rooms across four physical locations to prevent lecture overlap and connection issues.
  • Quality and impact were assessed via videoconferencing analytics, social media metrics, and audience surveys.

Main Results:

  • The 2020 IWBNC achieved high academic standards, global participation, schedule adherence, and security.
  • The event featured 25 international speakers, 30 multidisciplinary conferences, 3096 participants from 125 countries, and 22,266 live-stream views.
  • No technical or cybersecurity issues were reported during the congress.

Conclusions:

  • Web-based academic meetings are valuable tools for continuing medical education and professional development.
  • The 2020 IWBNC's double-room method offers a viable and replicable alternative for organizing virtual congresses.
  • This model can guide the academic community in planning future online scientific events.
