Warren Olanow produced an outpouring of grief by his many friends and colleagues in the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society (MDS), and the movement disorders world in general. Accompanying the sadness, however, was a sense of gratitude from those whose personal and professional lives he touched and selflessly supported.</p><p>Many of Warren's academic achievements are described in detail in the accompanying obituary,<span><sup>1</sup></span> in this issue of the Journal, from his longstanding close friends and collaborators José Obeso, Anthony Schapira, and Fabrizio Stocchi. After attending medical school at the University of Toronto, he completed his neurology residency at the New York Neurological Institute at Columbia University. Warren's interest in Parkinson's disease (PD) was influenced by Melvin Yahr and Roger Duvoisin, as well as Stanley Fahn, who had just returned to Columbia around that time. After further postdoctoral work on the basal ganglia at Columbia with the leading neuroanatomist, Malcolm Carpenter, Warren secured his first faculty position at McGill University and the Montreal Neurological Institute, where he taught the neuroanatomy course and set up a Parkinson's clinic.<span><sup>2</sup></span> He was then recruited to Duke University as Head of Clinical Neurology. At first, his major interests were in both myasthenia gravis and PD, but he settled on a career focusing on movement disorders. Collaborative work with Burton Drayer, who discovered that excessive brain iron led to characteristic magnetic resonance imaging changes, stirred an interest in laboratory science and exploring the pathophysiology of disease. He went on to pursue this as Professor of Neurology at the University of South Florida, where he helped pioneer a program in cell transplantation into the basal ganglia as therapy for PD. In 1994, he became Chairman of the Department of Neurology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, where he remained until his retirement from academic medicine, and was then appointed Emeritus Professor in both the Departments of Neurology and Neuroscience. Even in academic retirement, he appeared on the 2024 Clarivate list of Highly Cited Researchers.</p><p>The Movement Disorder Society (MDS) was created in 1992 from the formal merger of the International Medical Society for Motor Disturbances (ISMD) and MODIS (the ‘original’ Movement Disorder Society), of which Stanley Fahn was the founding President (1988–1991). Warren was the last President of the ISMD, from 1993 to 1994, and concurrently the first Treasurer of the newly merged MDS, working with his friend and colleague, C. David Marsden (deceased), who was its inaugural President from 1991 to 1994. As Treasurer, Warren played a crucial role in navigating the financial aspects of the merger of the two societies, and thus played an integral role in the birth of the MDS.<span><sup>3</sup></span></p><p>Warre","PeriodicalId":213,"journal":{"name":"Movement Disorders","volume":"40 3","pages":"395-397"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/mds.30138","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143404910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
