We have heard of
the sad passing of out Honorary Member Professor Bryan Jennett.
He was the leading figure in Neurotrauma in the world and continued to
write actively into his 80’s with his most recent book: ''The Vegetative
state''. He will be remembered as one of the Fathers of Neurotrauma Teaching
and Research in the world. His wisdom will be missed but some of it is
immortalised in his writings.
