About NEI Spring Congress

NEI’s Spring event was launched in 2016 as an event to provide healthcare professionals with an educational experience to explore the latest advancements in the field of mental health.

Every spring, we bring together leading researchers, educators, and practitioners for an immersive, evidence-based experience designed to deepen understanding, enhance treatment strategies, and improve patient care. Whether attending in person or virtually, participants gain invaluable insights into best practices, focusing on treatment strategies, side effects, drug interactions, and clinical management.

NEI was founded with the desire to help more patients by helping the professionals who treat them. We are dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment where lifelong learning flourishes, ensuring healthcare providers are equipped with the latest knowledge to enhance their practice and improve patient outcomes.

Join us at the NEI Spring Congress—where science meets practice, and knowledge leads to better care.



To Explain, Illustrate, and Animate

NEI’s approach to education is unique. The program is based on the creative use of a variety of adult learning methods that maximize attendees’ understanding of the material.

Although most education for adults is via lecture and reading, it is interesting to note that adults are predominantly visual learners! Using this knowledge, we have found that using graphics and/or animation to demonstrate drug action and disease path physiology allows for a perceptual grasp of a concept prior to the actual analytical understanding of the data and facts.

Most of all, NEI’s unparalleled ability to simplify complex scientific concepts through the innovative use of visual elements ultimately creates an enhanced learning experience that is engaging, entertaining, and rapidly promotes understanding and enhances retention.
