Hosted by Jake Sossamon, a neurology resident at Stanford University, The History of Neurology Podcast explores the human drama and discoveries behind the syndromes and eponyms we use in clinical practice every day. By tracing the evolution of the specialty from wartime breakthroughs to landmark laboratory insights, the show bridges the gap between the archives of the past and the challenges of the modern ward.

  • The 28 Lines that Changed Neurology: On Babinki's Reflex

    The 28 Lines that Changed Neurology: On Babinki's Reflex
    2026/05/05
    In this episode, we travel to late 19th-century Paris to meet a Polish-French neurologist who stood at the center of a medical revolution: a favorite student of the "Napoleon of the Salpêtrière" who was nearly cast out of medicine. He was a master of physical diagnosis and gave us the clinical reflex that differentiated a malady of the mind from a malady of the brain with the scratch of a key. We’ll dive into Joseph Babinski, how he transformed the world of neurology with a single paper only 28 lines long, and the eponym wars the ensued shortly after.

    Primary Sources & Further Reading: Babinski, J. (1896). Sur le réflexe cutané plantaire dans certaines affections organiques du système nerveux central. Comptes Rendus de la Société de Biologie, 48, 32-33.

  • James Parkinson the Paleontologist

    James Parkinson the Paleontologist
    2026/04/02
    Before he was a household name in neurology, James Parkinson was a man of dangerous secrets and ancient stones. In this episode, we travel to 19th-century London to meet a surgeon who lived a triple life: a political radical nearly executed for a plot against the King, a world-renowned pioneer of paleontology, and a community doctor who identified a "shaking palsy" by simply watching his neighbors walk to the market.
