A lot of advances in medicine are driven by individual investigators with a passion to solve a medical problem and improve outcomes. They go above and beyond. Nights, weekends. Barriers. Disappointments. With or without institutional support.
They do this despite the fact that they usually don’t gain anything financially, and often make far less money to pursue their passion for research. Their main reward is the progress itself, and that’s sufficient.
Yes, some do receive recognition, awards, and fame, but for most of my colleagues that’s not the driver of why they do what they do.
A distinct privilege to present at the ASET Florida chapter conference today. Insightful & engaging discussions. Sincere appreciation to my lead EEG techs Dylan, Kim, Danny & Rhonda for their exceptional leadership in organizing this significant event. @orlandohealth@ASETOnline
Prof. Hans Lüders has never been the one to announce his awards & accomplishments, however, we would like to highlight his most recent achievement. He was honored with the Otfrid Foerster Medal 2025 by the German Society of Epileptology at the 63rd annual meeting in Salzburg.
Dr. Howard Tucker has been awarded the record title for the oldest doctor ever after working until the age of 103.
He was continuing to work as a neurologist until just two months before his passing on 22 December 2025.

Hands-on learning is essential to truly understand neuromodulation where skills are built by doing. After last year’s success, this year, I am joining hands with Drs. Falco-Walter and Afra to bring to you the Neuromodulation Hands-On Workshop at #ACNS2026 tomorrow! @ACNS_org
