description | William Osler was a mentor for the younger William Harvey Cushing and they intermingled careers and friendship for the rest of their lives. They shared a common interest in the anatomy and pathology of neurological disorders, and in the history of medicine.

Both became medical icons, one beloved, and the other admired, each praised at their death centennial and 150 birth anniversary, respectively. |
