Abstract
This paper describes the influence of the Jonhs Hopkins School of Medicine on the origin of academic neurosurgery in America. The impact, arising from two of the founders, W Osler and W Halsted, was vehiculated by their direct pupils Harvey Cushing and Walter Dandy. The relationships between all these pioneers (sometimes stormy) are analized along with the development of the primitive residency program and the efforts to create the first neurosurgical society (the Society of Neurological Surgeons).
