Hosted by Jake Sossamon, a neurology resident at Stanford University, The History of Neurology Podcast explores the human drama and discoveries behind the syndromes and eponyms we use in clinical practice every day. By tracing the evolution of the specialty from wartime breakthroughs to landmark laboratory insights, the show bridges the gap between the archives of the past and the challenges of the modern ward. Each episode concludes with "Consulting the Masters," an AI-assisted segment that brings neurological pioneers into the 21st century to weigh in on current breakthroughs.
