Giants of Neurology

"If I have seen further than others, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."
—Sir Isaac Newton, Scientist

In the 20th century, the field of neurology was pioneered by scientists and physicians who had a passion for discovery and healing. By their remarkable achievements, some became much more than scientists and physicians.

They became giants.

They are instantly recognizable to their peers and the thousands of neurology professionals who follow in their footsteps—or stand on their shoulders. Their names are synonymous with leadership, innovation, commitment, integrity, vision, and compassion.

The AAN Foundation asks that you help carry on the work of these titans by contributing to funds established in their names. By honoring them and investing in their dreams, we ensure their achievements will lift up tomorrow's giants of neurology.
