“Ben Barres, MD, Ph.D., a member of the Foundation's International Consortium on Spinal Cord Injury Research since 2011, was a scientific pioneer. He was passionate, brilliant and exacting in his research, but also an extraordinarily good human being. His most important and long-lasting legacy will be his students, who go forth having inherited his love of science, his intellectual curiosity and his essential decency. Spinal cord research is richer for his contributions. “- Susan Howley, Executive VP of Research, in honor of Ben Barres (1954-2017) #FacesOfReeve
