WHO WE ARE

The Association of University Professors of Neurology (AUPN) was founded in 1967 and formally incorporated in 1968. It was organized originally to foster the development of academic neurology’s educational, research and patient care programs.

WHAT WE DO

The organization has always served as a forum for the Chairs of Departments or Divisions of Neurology in accredited medical schools in the United States, or similar programs in Canada, to discuss mutual academic interests and concerns, and has served as a clearing house to disseminate background information on relevant legislative issues requiring concerted lobbying efforts.

OUR MISSION

To support academic departments of neurology in all elements of their mission including: delivery of patient care; attracting and educating the talented cadre of physicians and physician-scientists for the future; and advancing our understanding and treatment of disorders of the nervous system.
