Life and works

Stefano Sandrone was born in Canelli, Italy, on the 1st of February 1988, and obtained a Ph.D. in Neuroscience at King’s College London, United Kingdom, where he started his career as a Teaching Fellow.

In 2014 he was selected as a young scientist for the 64th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting in Physiology or Medicine[1], which was attended by 37 Nobel Laureates,[2] and appeared in Wired magazine’s list of the ‘most promising Italians under 35’.[3]

In 2015 he co-authored the book entitled Brain Renaissance[4], and, for this, he won the biennial Award for Outstanding Book in the History of the Neurosciences[5] presented by the International Society for the History of the Neurosciences.[6] He also appeared as a contributor to the 41st edition of the Gray’s Anatomy. [7]

In 2016 Sandrone was awarded the H. Richard Tyler Award presented by the American Academy of Neurology,[8] and the following year he was elected as Vice Chair of the History of Neurology Section within the same Academy,[9] thus becoming the youngest Vice Chair at the American Academy of Neurology.[10] In 2017 he was also recognised as a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.[11]

Sandrone's works include the rediscovery of the manuscript of the first functional neuroimaging experiment,[12] which has been featured in several magazines and newspapers.[13][14][15][16][17][18][19]
