The Decade of the Brain: an era of promise for neurosurgery and a call to action

M Goldstein. J Neurosurg. 1990 Jul.

Abstract

On July 25, 1989, President Bush signed a bill declaring the 1990's to be the Decade of the Brain. This offers the clinical and basic neuroscience communities an opportunity to join with the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke in moving ahead vigorously with research aimed at preventing and treating neurological disease. Neurosurgery must be an active participant in this national endeavor; its influence, skills, and contributions are needed.
