Abstract
Mitchell Elkind tried not to be a doctor. “My father is an expert in headache, so from an early age I was surrounded by people interested in the brain”, Elkind tells The Lancet Neurology. Raised in New Rochelle, New York, USA, Elkind sought to forge his own, non-medical, path. Still, the mysteries of mind and brain beckoned, so he studied philosophy at Harvard University, along with premedical courses, and then travelled to the UK, where he studied the history of neurology and philosophy of the mind at Cambridge University.
