The Saul R. Korey Lectureship

The Korey Lectureship was established by Dr. Robert D. Terry in honor of Dr. Saul R. Korey, the founder and first Chair of the Department of Neurology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Korey's vision of an interdisciplinary approach to the study of neurological diseases by basic and clinical scientists has inspired generations of colleagues and trainees. Dr. Terry, a close collaborator and colleague of Dr. Korey, was the first recipient of the prestigious Potamkin Prize for Pick's and Alzheimer's Disease in 1988, in recognition of his seminal observations of the pathological changes in Alzheimer disease. Dr. Terry generously contributed a portion of the prize funds to endow the Korey Lectureship, to be administered by the American Association of Neuropathologists, with the lecturer to be chosen annually by the President.

Dr. Terry has summarized the qualities of the Korey Lecturer, as someone who has "been an active member of the Association...a working Neuropathologist...responsible for diagnostic work as well as teaching and research. The lecture should be aimed at the members of the Association, and the lecturer might well serve as a role model for younger members."

The Korey Lecturer, then, is someone who has "done it all" and "done it well".

The DeArmond Lectureship

The DeArmond Lectureship was established in recognition of Stephen J. DeArmond's excellent leadership and organization of the scientific program for the 2006 International Congress of Neuropathology. This successful meeting garnered significant support intended for the future advancement of the mission of the American Association of Neuropathologists. To continue these intended goals and recognize Dr. DeArmond's contributions, the American Association of Neuropathologists has honored him by establishing the DeArmond Lectureship.

Dr. DeArmond is a leading authority on prion disease, where his work has been fundamental in demonstrating mechanisms of transmission and routes to therapeutics. The DeArmond Lecture focuses on honoring those making major advances in the field of neurodegeneration and aging with a particular emphasis on translating these findings to patient care.

The Parisi Lectureship

The lecture was named the Parisi Lectureship in honor of one of the American Association of Neuropathologists’ exceptional members, Dr. Joseph E. Parisi. He has published seminal neuropathological studies on a wide range of diseases affecting the nervous system, with particular focus on neurodegenerative diseases and multiple sclerosis. He has held virtually every office of the Society, including President, and has served on several AANP committees. In 2006, his dedication and generosity were recognized with the Award for Meritorious Contributions to Neuropathology. He is considered by many the heart and soul of the association and a man worth emulating.

The Matthew T. Moore Lectureship

In 1970, Dr. Matthew T. Moore made a contribution to the AANP to establish the Moore Award, which is given annually to recognize the “Best Paper on Clinico-Pathological Correlation Presented at the Annual Meeting.” In 1987, Rechelle Fishman, a former patient of Dr. Moore, bequeathed $75,000 to the Moore Award Fund. Dr. Moore requested that this bequest be used to establish a “Rachelle Fishman-Matthew Moore Distinguished Lectureship” (later shortened to just the “Moore Lectureship”), which is “to be given by a distinguished lecturer, on a subject which represents the leading edge of advanced research in neuropathological subjects of contemporary interest. The lecture is to take place on the day of the Presidential Address.” In 1988, it was decided that this Lectureship would replace the “Distinguished Lectureship” that had been sponsored each year by the Association. The Moore Lecturer is selected annually by the President in conjunction with the Nominating Committee and the Chair of the Program Committee.
