PLAN
1) Start a Home Website, www.Global Neurosurgery.tv (now in Beta)
2. Divide Countries by Language, initially with FOUR Channels: a) English, b) Spanish c) Portuguese d) French (see www.GlobalNeurosurgery.tv/maps )
3) Provide a CONTINUAL Diet of Evidence-Based Neurosurgical CONTENT in each channel, mostly on weekends
4) CONTENT derived, under direction of Administrating Neurosurgical Center, from these areas
a-GRAND ROUNDS FROM NEUROSURGERY PROGRAMS IN USA
a) -out of 110 Neurosurgery Residency programs, we can project about participation of about 25%; note that we are simply Live Streaming from their normal webcast, we just need permission of Program
b) any other Live Broadcast of US Neurosurgery programs, i.e., M and M conferences
c) Encourage US Based Neurosurgeons to do Conferences to any Channel of their preference; most likely will be native to that Language or have interest in promoting neurosurgical education in that area of the world. There are many Spanish, French and Portuguese Neurosurgeons in the USA that will mostly welcome opportunity to participate in this project.
d) for the voluntary participation of Spanish, French and Portuguese Neurosurgeons, we can start off them relying on covering “Modular Training”, where the content is same as the Modular Training that all neurosurgeons follow to become Board Certified in Neurosurgery
d) Collaborate with ALL the generous Neurosurgical Missions to other parts of the world, all to be televised on www.GlobalNeurosurgery.tv, as well as having webcasts, before and after the mission to cover important topics for that country; that is, we AMPLIFY these topics for the Developing countries
IN SUMMARY, TO NOT INCREASE THE NUMBER OF HOURS THE NEUROSURGEONS HAVE TO WORK, BUT TO TELEVISE THAT WORK THAT THEY CURRENTLY DO, AND TO DILIGENTLY SEARCH FOR SOURCES OF CONTENT IN ALL PARTS OF AMERICA.

POINT BY POINT, HOW THIS LANGUAGE BASED SYSTEM WILL CURE THE DEFICIENCIES NOW EXISTING IN NEUROSURGERY EDUCATION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
-
Lack of Standardized Training – Many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) struggle with inconsistencies in neurosurgical education, leading to varied levels of training and expertise.
-
Limited Resources – Neurosurgical centers in underdeveloped regions often face shortages in equipment, infrastructure, and faculty, making structured teaching difficult.
-
Fragmented Healthcare Systems – Without national guidelines, accreditation processes, or sufficient funding, training programs may be haphazard or uneven in quality.
-
Absence of Mentorship and Research Culture – Many LMICs lack access to research, peer-reviewed publications, and mentorship opportunities that help develop academic neurosurgeons. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________CONCLUSION:
