Welcome
Ladies and Gentleman,
May I welcome you to this department of the Max-Planck-Institut
fUr Hirnforschung and to the lInd "Kainer Symposium" which is
devoted to the localization of function. This Max-Planck-Institut
in Frankfurt and Cologne succeeds the old Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institut
fUr Hirnforschung, Berlin-Buch, of OSKAR VOGT. However, our de
partment feels particularly obliged to maintain the traditions
of the Neurologisches Forschungsinstitut Breslau of OTFRID FOER
STER which was lost by the last war. In the past both institu
tions were particularly successful in the field of our discus
sion, namely in the "Lokalisationslehre, or cerebral localiza
tion". Cologne, situated on a cross-way from north to south and
east to west, is a town which has always been host to guests
from allover the world, from its Roman time to the medieval
holy Roman Empire of German Nation, as it was called, from then
it has been one of the Centers of the European Hansa League,
and has remained one of the cross roads of Europe ever since.
It gives us a particular pleasure to welcome guests from all
over the world for this hopefully successful discussion, which
is dedicated to one of the great localizers, OTFRID FOERSTER.
This year is the centenary of his birth.
I would also like to commemorate one of OTFRID FOERSTER's eldest
coworkers and friends, PERCIVAL BAILEY. I had invited him but
unfortunately he had to decline the invitation. He said he
would be happy to receive all the details of the forthcoming
discussion. But just a few days ago I heard from HEINRICH KLUVER,
whom I also had hoped to have here as our Senior member, that
PERCIVAL BAILEY had died on the 11th of August. Our thoughts
are full of commemoration for this great neurosurgeon and neuro
logical scientist.
I am happy to express my thanks to Drs. O. CREUTZFELDT, G.C. GAL
BRAITH and K.-A. HOSSMANN for their help in organizing this
discussion which we hope will be successful.
