ELGGN 2026, Montpellier
Welcome to the 20th Anniversary Meeting of the European Low-Grade Glioma Network (ELGGN)
Dear colleagues and friends of the European Low-Grade Glioma Network (ELGGN), the 20th Annual Meeting of the ELGGN will take place in Montpellier from April 23 to 25, 2026.
For two decades, the ELGGN has united neurosurgeons, neuroscientists, neuro-oncologists, neuroradiologists, and rehabilitation specialists with the shared goal of understanding and preserving the human brain while improving the quality of life for patients with diffuse low-grade gliomas. Founded on a spirit of collaboration, open dialogue, and translational research, the ELGGN has grown into a dynamic community that connects clinical expertise and neuroscientific innovation across Europe and beyond.
The 20th Anniversary Congress in Montpellier will celebrate this shared journey and offer a glimpse into the future of low-grade glioma treatment. Join us where it all began—at the intersection of science, surgery, and human resilience—as we celebrate twenty years of progress and shape the next era of functional, multidisciplinary, and personalized neuro-oncology.
