CHILD NEUROLOGISTS ARE SPECIALLY TRAINED PHYSICIANS WHO HAVE FOLLOWED UP THEIR FOUR-YEAR MEDICAL DEGREE WITH A FIVE-YEAR POST-GRADUATE TRAINING REGIMEN CONSISTING OF TWO YEARS TRAINING IN PEDIATRICS, ONE YEAR IN GENERAL NEUROLOGY & TWO YEARS IN CHILD NEUROLOGY. 0 0 449083 850595 ALONG WITH ALL OTHER ASSOCIATIONS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, MEDICAL OR NON-MEDICAL, THE CHILD NEUROLOGY SOCIETY CAN LOOK BACK ON 2020 WITH A SENSE OF WONDER, AWE, REGRET AND RELIEF. WE MADE IT. AS NON-FRONTLINE MEDICAL PROVIDERS TRANSITIONING TO TELEMEDICINE AND REMOTE WORK ENVIRONMENTS, OUR MEMBERS CAME THROUGH THE YEAR WITHOUT THE KIND AND LEVEL OF TRAGIC LOSS THAT OTHER PROFESSIONAL SOCIETIES EXPERIENCED. THE CNS REMAINED RELENTLESSLY ACTIVE THROUGHOUT 2020 IN SURVEYING, REPORTING, AND ADVOCATING FOR THE PRACTICE OF PEDIATRIC NEUROLOGY. WITHIN THE FIRST TWO WEEKS OF MARCH, THE SOCIETY PRODUCED A JOINT STATEMENT WITH THE CHILD NEUROLOGY FOUNDATION OF PRACTICAL ADVICE FOR PRACTITIONERS AND FAMILIES. IN SHORT ORDER, OUR ETHICS COMMITTEE, CHAIRED BY WILLIAM GRAF, AND LEON EPSTEIN, CHAIR OF THE AAN ETHICS, LAW, AND HUMANITIES COMMITTEE (AND CO-SIGNER ON THE HASTINGS LETTER TO THE WHITE HOUSE AND CONGRESS ON THE VERY REAL PRESSING ISSUES THAT COME TO BEAR IN A PANDEMIC, INCLUDING PROTECTION OF HEALTH CARE WORKERS AND POTENTIAL RATIONING OF LIMITED RESOURCES) DISTRIBUTED A STATEMENT OF PRACTICAL BIOETHICS IN A PANDEMIC; THIS IS AVAILABLE ON THE CNS WEBSITE WITH A FULL VERSION NOW PUBLISHED IN PEDIATRIC NEUROLOGY. WE JOINED TOGETHER WITH PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING THE AAN, ACNS, AES, CNF, ILAE, AND NAEC, FOR A CONCERTED RESPONSE TO THE RAPIDLY EMERGING ISSUES. CHALLENGES IN DEALING WITH OUR MOST VULNERABLE POPULATIONS AROSE QUICKLY, AND THE PRACTICE COMMITTEE, IN CONCERT WITH THE PEDIATRIC EPILEPSY RESEARCH CONSORTIUM, PRODUCED RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF NEW ONSET INFANTILE SPASMS DISTRIBUTED TO THE MEMBERSHIP, POSTED ON OUR WEBSITE WITH LINKS TO THE PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS, AND PUBLISHED IN THE JOURNAL OF CHILD NEUROLOGY WITH AN ACCOMPANYING EDITORIAL IN THE ANNALS OF NEUROLOGY. WE PUT TOGETHER A TELEMEDICINE TOOLKIT FROM THE TELEMEDICINE SIG, AND A PROTOCOL FOR TELEHEALTH EXAMINATIONS FROM THE ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS COMMITTEE APPLICABLE TO SPECIFIC AGES, FROM INFANCY THROUGH ADOLESCENCE. WE SUBSEQUENTLY SHIFTED OUR FOCUS TO THE RE-ENTRY OF PEDIATRIC NEUROLOGY CLINICS AND HOPE, SOONER RATHER THAN LATER, TO MAKE THIS, AGAIN, A VERY PRACTICAL DOCUMENT, THAT POISES US TO OPTIMISTICALLY ENTER A RECOVERY MODE. THE RESEARCH COMMITTEE ASSEMBLED A DOCUMENT AT THE REQUEST OF NINDS FOR RESEARCH PRIORITIES IN CHILD NEUROLOGY AND PIVOTED QUICKLY WITH A SURVEY TO EXPLORE HOW THE PANDEMIC HAS AFFECTED RESEARCH ACTIVITIES AND RESOURCES.IN MID-APRIL, ABOUT A MONTH FOLLOWING THE WHO'S OFFICIAL DECLARATION OF A COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WE ASKED THE FOUR COUNCILLORS SERVING ON THE CNS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE TO RESPOND TO AND SOLICIT RESPONSES FROM COLLEAGUES TO THE HANDFUL OF QUESTIONS LISTED BELOW. THE RESPONSE WAS BOTH THOUGHTFUL AND ROBUST. SOME OF THOSE RESPONSES WERE COLLECTED AND OFFERED TO CNS MEMBERS IN A SPECIAL COVID-19 ISSUE OF CNS CONNECTIONS. THE SPECIAL ISSUE FEATURED THOUGHTFUL REFLECTIONS FROM A BROAD RANGE OF MEMBERS, EACH RESPONDING TO A FEW SET QUESTIONS:* HOW HAVE YOU RESPONDED TO, ADAPTED, OR COPED WITH THE CURRENT COVID19 PANDEMIC, EITHER FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF YOUR COMMITTEE, SPECIAL INTEREST IN CHILD NEUROLOGY, OR PRACTICE? * HOW DO YOU SEE THIS AFFECTING PEDIATRIC NEUROLOGY GOING FORWARD? * HOW HAS THIS CHANGED OUR CITIZENSHIP IN THE WIDER WORLDS OF NEUROLOGY, PEDIATRICS, MEDICINE, AND SOCIETY IN GENERAL? * HOW HAS THIS CHANGED THE OUTLOOK FOR OUR JUNIOR MEMBERS AND RECRUITMENT INTO CHILD NEUROLOGY AS WELL AS INTO MEDICINE?THE LATTER TWO QUESTIONS WERE GIVEN ADDED URGENCY IN THE WAKE OF THE TRAGIC MIDSUMMER MURDER BY MINNEAPOLIS POLICEMEN OF GEORGE FLOYD, PROMPTING AN IMPASSIONED STATEMENT PUBLISHED IN THE ANNALS OF NEUROLOGY (JUNE 22, 2020), EXCERPTED BELOW:WHAT DOES RACISM AND INTOLERANCE MEAN TO US AS CHILD NEUROLOGISTS? WHAT DOES IT ASK OF US WHO ARE TRAINED TO RECOGNIZE AND REMEDY INBORN ERRORS OF ANOTHER SORT? A LITTLE MORE THAN A YEAR AGO, IN A LETTER FROM THE CNS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR EXPLORING THE CONCEPT OF "HOPE" AS IT RELATED TO CHILD NEUROLOGY AND THE RECENT, REMARKABLE BREAKTHROUGHS IN GENETIC THERAPIES FOR DISORDERS PREVIOUSLY DEEMED ALL BUT HOPELESS, ROGER LARSON QUOTED THE GREAT AMERICAN ARCHITECT LOUIS SULLIVAN ON THE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY OF SCHOLARS: "TRUE SCHOLARSHIP IS OF THE HIGHEST USEFULNESS ... (WHEN) APPLIED FOR THE GOOD AND ENLIGHTENMENT OF ALL THE PEOPLE, NOT FOR THE PAMPERING OF A CLASS. ... IN A DEMOCRACY THERE CAN BE BUT ONE FUNDAMENTAL TEST OF CITIZENSHIP, NAMELY: ARE YOU USING SUCH GIFTS AS YOU POSSESS FOR OR AGAINST THE PEOPLE?""CHILD NEUROLOGISTS PASS THAT BASIC TEST EVERY DAY," LARSON WROTE. "THEY ARE 'CITIZENS' IN THE HIGHEST SENSE. ... THE RESEARCH, TRAINING, AND DIRECT CARE FOR PATIENTS TO WHICH THEY DEDICATE THEMSELVES DAILY IS VERY MUCH 'FOR THE GOOD AND ENLIGHTENMENT OF ALL THE PEOPLE.' TOGETHER, CNS MEMBERS EXPLORE, OPEN UP, AND MAKE MORE READILY - AND DEMOCRATICALLY-AVAILABLE THE MOST ESSENTIAL PATHWAY TOWARD REALIZING THE POSSIBILITIES OF LIFE IN AMERICA: A HEALTHILY FUNCTIONING CHILD'S BRAIN. THEY OFFER HOPE. BADLY NEEDED HOPE. HOPE THAT IS NEEDED NOW, MORE THAN EVER." BUT AS WE HAVE SEEN IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS AND COUNTLESS TIMES BEFORE, OUR LOVE FOR CHILDREN IS NOT ENOUGH. WE KNOW THAT OUR PATIENTS ARE NOT CLIENTS AND THAT WE ARE NOT ONLY PROVIDERS. WE ARE ALL HUMAN BEINGS TRAVELING TOGETHER ON THIS SMALL PLANET. THE CHILDREN AND THEIR PARENTS THAT WE CARE FOR REPRESENT EVERY RACE, RELIGION, ETHNICITY, COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, INCOME AND EMPLOYMENT LEVEL, EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND, AND LINGUISTIC PROFICIENCY. WE ARE IN AN EXCELLENT POSITION TO DEMONSTRATE THAT OUR CARING AND UNDERSTANDING ATTITUDE CAN BE EMULATED BY OTHERS.AS CHILD NEUROLOGISTS, WE CAN MAKE A STRONG STATEMENT THAT RACISM MUST BE DEFEATED. AS SCHOLARS AND PHYSICIANS, WE PROVE THIS EVERY DAY IN THE CLINIC, ON THE TELEPHONE, AND IN INTERACTIONS WITH EACH OTHER. AS CITIZENS, WE CANNOT AND WILL NOT TOLERATE AFRICAN AMERICANS BEING TREATED AS LESS THAN HUMAN. WE NEED TO JOIN WITH OTHERS TO MOBILIZE AS A SOCIETY TO END RACISM AND INTOLERANCE. 1493034 38833 881470 WHAT WAS EXPECTED TO BE THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE YEAR - OR EVEN THE LAST 25 YEARS, REALLY - A JOINT CONGRESS WITH THE INTERNATIONAL CHILD NEUROLOGY ASSOCIATION, THE FIRST SUCH SINCE 1994 IN SAN FRANCISCO, BECAME INSTEAD THE FIRST VIRTUAL JOINT CONGRESS AND CNS ANNUAL MEETING. AS AN EDUCATIONAL FORUM, THE VIRTUAL CONGRESS WAS TRULY EXCEPTIONAL, OFFERING 65 SCIENTIFIC SESSIONS FEATURING 260 CHILD NEUROLOGY EXPERTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD, MOST OF WHOM WERE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN LIVE -AND LIVELY - ZOOMED Q&A FORUMS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE PRE-RECORDED LECTURES. NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES WITH COLLEAGUES, SPONSORS AND EXHIBITORS WERE DECIDEDLY LESS FULFILLING, DUE IN NO SMALL PART TO THE UNIQUE SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH FOUND ALL PARTICIPANTS REMOTELY LOCATED AT HOME OR OFFICE, BUSY WITH WORK OR FAMILY, ETC. RATHER THAN GATHERED IN ONE PLACE FOR A FULL WEEK AS WAS ORIGINALLY PLANNED FOR SAN DIEGO. LESSONS WERE LEARNED AND, SHOULD WE FIND OURSELVES UNABLE TO MEET LIVE IN BOSTON THIS FALL, WE WILL STAGE AN EVEN BETTER VIRTUAL MEETING THE SECOND TIME OUT. WE'RE HOPING IT DOESN'T COME TO THAT, HOWEVER. THIS YEAR'S MEETING IS OUR 50TH/GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY MEETING. WHICH MEANS WE NEED TO HOLD ON TO THE THIN THREAD OF POSSIBLY MEETING LIVE, EVEN AT SOCIALLY-DISTANCED DEPRESSED NUMBERS, FOR AS LONG AS WE POSSIBLY CAN. THE SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM PLANNED FOR BOSTON WILL FOCUS ON CHILD NEUROLOGY'S PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE. 1942117 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 10 0 1 4 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 7 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 MN X ROGER LARSON 6514869447 1000 WEST COUNTY ROAD E ST PAUL MN 55126 ROGER B LARSON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 252508 0 49155 SUE HUSSMAN CMP ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 134988 0 43981 PHILLIP PEARL MD PRESIDENT 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JONATHAN MINK MD PHD PAST-PRESIDENT (THRU NOVEMBER) 1.00 X X 0 0 0 BRUCE H COHEN MD SEC-TREAS (THRU NOV) PRES-ELECT (BEG' NOV) 1.00 X X 0 0 0 LORI JORDAN MD PHD SEC-TREAS (BEG' NOV) COUNC SOUTH (THRU NOV) 1.00 X X 0 0 0 NIGEL S BAMFORD MD COUNCILLOR FOR THE NORTHEAST 1.00 X 0 0 0 NANCY E BASS MD COUNCILLOR FOR THE MIDWEST 1.00 X 0 0 0 AUDREY BRUMBACK MD PHD COUNCILLOR FOR THE SOUTH (BEG' NOV ) 1.00 X 0 0 0 SONIA PARTAP MD COUNCILLOR FOR THE WEST (BEG' NOV) 1.00 X 0 0 0 MARK WAINWRIGHT MD PHD COUNCILLOR FOR THE WEST (THRU NOV) 1.00 X 0 0 0 387496 0 93136 1 0 1 0 0 770880 770880 CONFERENCE REVENUE 900099 606270 606270 DUES & INITIATION FEES 900099 477736 477736 EXHIBIT REVENUE 900099 302700 302700 ANNALS EDITORIAL 900099 244275 244275 ANNALS ADVERTISING 541800 15154 15154 1646135 129280 129280 614920 673169 -58249 -58249 -58249 REGISTRY INCOME 900099 59630 59630 MAILING LISTS 900099 30500 27450 3050 SELF-ASSESS EXAM/CME C 900099 21490 21490 20014 20014 131634 2619680 1759565 18204 71031 30000 30000 8833 8833 480632 425539 55093 66901 59232 7669 14796 13100 1696 32950 29173 3777 27670 24498 3172 984 984 52880 13801 39079 36048 36048 60317 58661 1656 104160 83101 21059 103121 93153 9968 28040 24826 3214 132 132 775801 775801 2516 2516 7289 3812 3477 ANNALS OF NEUROLOGY 217950 217950 MULTI-ORGANIZATIONAL RE 24724 24724 NEWSLETTER 6363 6363 DUES, FEES, AND SUBSCRI 4091 4091 10481 9411 1070 2096679 1942117 154562 0 1232107 1817190 2340037 1750659 134680 197122 130466 141991 141213 100959 4319 40254 2801599 3876062 6643208 7823278 70467 215482 128100 143500 0 83700 198567 442682 X 4714148 5425255 1730493 1955341 6444641 7380596 6643208 7823278 523001 412954 0 X 0 1 X 0 0 X 358770 529845 874540 871610 77880 2712645 1777875 1737172 2152582 2281279 1630981 9579889 2136645 2267017 3027122 3152889 1708861 12292534 185000 195000 232000 128000 60000 800000 11458 27600 20494 291433 100891 451876 196458 222600 252494 419433 160891 1251876 11040658 81081 118186 172717 134741 129280 636005 19382 13242 4787 2431 3534 43376 100463 131428 177504 137172 132814 679381 190014 175768 140611 178795 128584 813772 2427122 2574213 3345237 3468856 1970259 13785687 0.80090 0.80760 0.04930 0.04760 X SCHEDULE A, PART III, LINE 12, EXPLANATION OF OTHER INCOME: MISCELLANEOUS INCOME - 2016 AMOUNT: $ 190,014. 2017 AMOUNT: $ 175,768. 2018 AMOUNT: $ 140,611. 2019 AMOUNT: $ 178,795. 2020 AMOUNT: $ 128,584.
