Don Stuss 1941-2019

Don Stuss was one of the foremost contemporary neuropsychologists, world leader in the neuroscientific study of the prefrontal cortex, and founding director of two leading neuroscience institutes (the Rotman Research Institute and the Ontario Brain Institute). Don’s science always started with clinical observations and was centered on questions central to humanity, such as how we view ourselves and others and how we successfully function in the world. In the same vein, Don brought his humanity into all of his interactions, leaving many indelible impressions throughout the world in his personal and professional networks.

I first got to know Don personally around 1990 when he was establishing the Rotman Institute. As well as being an insightful and creative research scientist who made seminal contributions to our understanding of frontal lobe function, he was warm-hearted, generous and fun-loving. I have especially fond memories of listening to jazz with him in a Toronto nightclub, and of attending an uproarious holiday party at his home in the city. My condolences to his family, friends and colleagues. He will be much missed.
