Donald Simpson was a remarkable man and co-founder of the NeuroSurgical Research Foundation.
This biography, written by two former trainees, and later colleagues, tells the story of his family background and academic career in neurosurgery, from Adelaide to Oxford. It covers the many aspects of his life – from medical research and historical interests to working with disabled and sick children and his humanitarian activities. It also contains many contributions from people who knew him and many stories about him, some humorous, some surprising but always “Donaldesque”. The unique character of Donald Simpson, neurosurgeon and humanitarian, shines through.
By purchasing this biography, you not only gain insight into the incredible life of Donald Simpson but will also help continue his legacy by contributing directly to advancing medical research in neurosurgery.
All proceeds from the sale of the book will fund the newly created Donald Simpson Neuroscience Scholarship, which will support a junior neuroscientist to advance their research skills. You can make a direct donation to the Donald Simpson Neuroscience Scholarship Appeal here.
