Dear Colleagues and Friends,
On behalf of the CNS Foundation, thank you for your support in 2023. Due to your generosity, the CNS Foundation supported thirty-one annual grants totaling more than $30,000 This CNS Foundation website and the CNS Quarterly will continually provide updates about this work.
You have been essential in these remarkable achievements.
I am honored to lead as Chairs of the Foundation.
Important changes were recently approved by the CNS Foundation Board:
- Each neurosurgery sub-specialty section recognized by the CNS was invited to nominate a member to serve on the CNS Foundation Board. The full roster of the CNS Foundation Board accompanies this letter. We believe this expansion represents our inclusive and broad approach to subject matter sub-specialty expertise.
- CNS Executive Committee Members-at-Large have also been asked to serve as members of the CNS Foundation during their term.
- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion was formally adopted as a new fourth pillar of the CNS Foundation.
The Foundation leadership continues to work on your behalf to improve worldwide patient health. We invite you to contact us any time with your thoughts. Join us in 2024 as we increase the impact and reach of our work, made possible by your generosity.
With sincere regards,
Martina Stippler, MD
Chair, CNS Foundation
CNS Secretary
