MiSSion StateMent The American Academy of Neurology is a medical specialty society established to advance the art and science of neurology, and thereby promote the best possible care for patients with neurological disorders by: • Ensuring appropriate access to neurological care. • Supporting and advocating for an environment which ensures ethical, high-quality neurological care. • Providing excellence in professional education by offering a variety of programs in both the clinical aspects of neurology and the basic neurosciences to physicians and allied health professionals. • Supporting clinical and basic research in the neurosciences and related fields.
since 1948 Many years ago, I was a young neurologist who was fortunate to be the right- hand man for Dr. Adolph Sahs at the University of Iowa. At the time, he was working with A.B. Baker, Russell DeJong, Frank Forster, and Joe Brown on a new organization for neurologists, and Dr. Sahs asked me to help out. I was honored to help fulfill the vision of this august group, and I signed up as the sixth member of the American Academy of Neurology. We had our first organizational meeting in Chicago during the American Medical Association’s annual meeting, and it was a very exciting time. We knew our profession needed to come together, we knew there was strength in numbers. Our first Annual Meeting was the next year, 1949, in French Lick Springs, Indiana, and I’ve been to nearly every Annual Meeting since. And boy, how those membership numbers have grown! I can’t begin to describe how the Academy has changed over the years, but I can tell you one thing that hasn’t changed and I trust will never change: the AAN has always been improving and responding to the needs of its members. Whether you are a practicing neurologist, a researcher, or professor of neurology, you know that to be a member of the AAN is to associate yourself with the best and the brightest in our profession.
