Dear friends and colleagues

Dear friends and colleagues, we are pleased to announce that the 9th Iranian International Headache Congress will be held from 7 to 9 October 2026. The Iranian Headache Association organises the meeting with support from the International Headache Society and Tehran University of Medical Sciences.

We expect neurologists, physical medicine specialists, and pain-management experts from across Iran. National and international speakers will share the latest insights on primary and secondary headache, cranial neuralgias, pediatric headache, neck pain, and innovative procedures.

Two practical workshops will cover botulinum toxin for migraine and peripheral nerve blocks. Abstracts will be online from day one, with printed copies provided at registration.
