AAN Awards and Fellowships

I was distinctly honored to receive the 2012 Michael S. Pessin Stroke Leadership Prize, and I was thrilled that my passion for stroke research was being recognized on the national level. As a clinician-scientist, I have embraced this prestigious award as an opportunity to further fuel my commitment to research and clinical care of stroke patients, who are the true inspiration behind my work. I am also profoundly grateful to the American Academy of Neurology for its recognition of leadership and for providing opportunities for young investigators to succeed.
Natalia Rost, MD 2012 Michael S. Pessin Stroke Leadership Prize Recipient

how to apply for an award

The AAN offers more than three dozen scientific and non-scientific awards in a variety of areas of interest. We encourage you to take full consideration of your efforts and submit your application for an AAN award. Ask yourself how your efforts have led you to where you are today and make the decision to apply. Recognition is essential to shining light on new breakthroughs and understandings.

Begin your journey to the podium now at www.aan.com/view/awards!

how to apply for a Fellowship

The Research Fellowship Program of the American Brain Foundation is focused on one critical need that crosses all disciplines: the need to recruit and train clinical researchers in neurology. The scientific and medical communities have called the shortage of investigators a crisis that will impact far more than the 50 million Americans currently suffering from a neurological disease. Recognizing this critical need for neurology research, the American Brain Foundation has dedicated its grant making efforts toward investing in young researchers.
