ENEA
The European Neuroendocrine Association (ENEA) was founded in the early 1980. It is started to promote, assist and integrate neuroendocrinology in all its aspects, both basic and clinical, initially throughout the European continent. ENEA promotes basic and clinical research in neuroendocrine physiology, pathophysiology, oncology and therapeutics as well as in disciplines affected by neuroendocrinology like metabolism and psychiatry. ENEA organizes biennial meetings to discuss and explore the latest research and concepts in current neuroendocrinology and also to educate and motivate endocrinologists in training and scientists contacting basic and translational research in neuroendocrinology and related fields. The main goals of this association are:

1. improve the diagnosis and therapy of patients with neuroendocrine tumors in an international, interdisciplinary and scientific context
2. coordinate research at European hospitals and health research institutes, with emphasis on basic and clinical research for the diagnosis and treatment of NETs
3. further develop standards for the accreditations of ENETS Centers of Excellence
4. offer education and training for physicians and scientists at annual scientific and educational meetings
5. focus on writing and updating NET guidelines for all aspects of NET care including treatment and standards of care and subsequently publicising in medical and scientific journals
6. foster the exchange of forums for young investigators
7. support collaborative scientific projects of excellence
