Threats to academic neurosurgery in the United Kingdom: a personal view

J D Pickard. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1993 Nov.

Abstract

Money, or lack of it, is but one, albeit very important, threat to academic neurosurgery. This review has rambled over some of the other minefields and self-inflicted hurdles. The path of academic progress is long and tortuous. Time has to be found in neurosurgery to examine critically the opportunities and threats posed by a changing world to our goals of establishing standards of patient care, research, and the flexible training of the next generation.
