Ilya Mark Scheinker: Controversial Neuroscientist and Refugee from National Socialist Europe
HISTORICAL ARTICLE COPYRIGHT © 2016 THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NEUROLOGICAL SCIENCES INC. Ilya Mark Scheinker: Controversial Neuroscientist and Refugee From National Socialist Europe Lawrence A. Zeidman, Matthias Georg Ziller, Michael Shevell ABSTRACT: Russian-born, Vienna-trained neurologist and neuropathologist Ilya Mark Scheinker collaborated with Josef Gerstmann and Ernst Sträussler in 1936 to describe the familial prion disorder now known as Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker disease. Because of Nazi persecution following the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany, Scheinker fled from Vienna to Paris, then after the German invasion of France, to New York. With the help of neurologist Tracy Putnam, Scheinker ended up at the University of Cincinnati, although his position was never guaranteed. He more than doubled his prior publications in America, and authored three landmark neuropathology textbooks. Despite his publications, he was denied tenure and had difficulty professionally in the Midwest because of prejudice against his European mannerisms. He moved back to New York for personal reasons in 1952, dying prematurely just 2 years later. Scheinker was twice uprooted, but persevered and eventually found some success as a refugee. RÉSUMÉ: Ilya Mark Scheinker, un spécialiste des neurosciences et un réfugié de l’Europe nationale-socialiste controversé. Ilya Mark Scheinker était né en Russie et il avait fait ses études de neurologie et de neuropathologie à Vienne. Il a collaboré avec Josef Gerstmann et Ernst Sträussler en 1936 pour décrire la maladie familiale à prions connue maintenant sous le nom de maladie de Gerstmann-Sträussler. En raison de la persécution Nazi qui a suivi l’annexion de l’Autriche par l’Allemagne nazie, Scheinker a fui Vienne pour s’établir à Paris puis à New-York après l’invasion de la France par l’Allemagne. -

Clinical Neurophysiology (CNP) Section Resident Core Curriculum
American Academy of Neurology Clinical Neurophysiology (CNP) Section Resident Core Curriculum 9/7/01 Definition of the Subspecialty of Clinical Neurophysiology The subspecialty of Clinical Neurophysiology involves the assessment of function of the central and peripheral nervous system for the purpose of diagnosing and treatment of neurologic disorders. The CNP procedures commonly used include EEG, EMG, evoked potentials, polysomnography, epilepsy monitoring, intraoperative monitoring, evaluation of movement disorders, and autonomic nervous system testing. The use of CNP procedures requires an understanding of neurophysiology, clinical neurology, and the findings that can occur in various neurologic disorders. The following are the recommended CORE curriculum for residents re CNP. Basic Neurophysiology: Membrane properties of nerve and muscle potentials (resting, action, synaptic, generator), ion channels, synaptic transmission, physiologic basis of EEG, EMG, evoked potentials, sleep mechanisms, autonomic disorders, epilepsy, neuromuscular diseases, and movement disorders Anatomic Substrates of EEG, EMG, evoked potentials, sleep and autonomic activity Indications: Know the indications for and the interpretation of the various CNP tests in the context of the clinical problem. EEG: 1. Recognize normal EEG patterns of infants, children, and adults 2. Recognize abnormal EEG patterns and their clinical significance, including epileptiform patterns, coma patterns, periodic patterns, and the EEG patterns seen with various focal and diffuse neurologic and systemic disorders. 3. Know the EEG criteria for recording in suspected brain death EMG: 1. Know the normal parameters of nerve conduction studies and needle exam of infants, children, and adults 2. Know the abnormal patterns of nerve conduction studies and needle exam and the clinical correlates with various diseases that affect the neuromuscular and peripheral nervous system Evoked Potential Studies 1. -

The Search for the "Manchurian Candidate" the Cia and Mind Control

Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments. -
Genesis of Charaka Club, New York and Gleanings Related to Hindu Medicine from the Proceedings
GENESIS OF CHARAKA CLUB, NEW YORK AND GLEANINGS RELATED TO HINDU MEDICINE FROM THE PROCEEDINGS By K. RAGHUNATHAN Medical societies, associations and clubs occupy an important place in the life of the profession. These bodies hold fast the profession, and help in inculcating the feeling of love and oneness besides bringing the members into contact with great workers of the field and age. This contact serves as an inspiration and acts as a powerful impetus to the youngsters to cultivate the spirit of labour which made those great people what they were. This healthy influence has a significant place in the advance- ment of knowledge. There are various medical societies, clubs and associations in different parts of the world, each having special objects in view. Charak a Club of New York was one of the clubs formed with select gathering. It was a medico-historico-social club that c iscussed a range of subjects involving fields like medicine, medical history, literature and poetry even. In order to prevent from becoming too engrossed in purely profe- ssional matters, dinners, conversaziones and popular meetings are commonly held in the club. This club periodically released its Proceedings containing the names of members, list of subjects discussed together with certain papers read before the club. A club Was founded in November 1898 by a group of four-Charles L. Dana, Joseph Colleirs, Frederick Peterson and Bernard Sachs at New York. These members were attending regularly medical meetings at New York Academy of Medicine in West 43rd street. They were more anxious, in the words of Bernard Sachs, to get together at regular intervals to discuss, in an intimate way, subjects of cultural rather than purely medical interest.
