AbstractThe President of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) emphasizes the need to participate actively in the burgeoning field of neuroscience, and the unique opportunity of neurological surgeons to apply the new knowledge to the treatment of their patients. Clinician-investigators need to be trained in their formative years in the methodology and techniques of modern neurobiology. Diminishing governmental support for training poses a grave threat to carrying on the tradition of research in neurological surgery. To meet a critical need, the formation of a Research Foundation is announced as a function of the AANS. As Science is expanded and applied, the Art of neurosurgery will continue to be refined, along with the high tradition of Ethics which has been handed down over the years as part of the heritage of neurological surgeons.
