A poster on the wall reads, “Ask us about epilepsy,” with smaller text below referencing the Alabama Council on Epilepsy and a telephone number. The image appears to document an educational or awareness effort related to epilepsy.

Throwing it back to June 1987 on the steps of the old Hillman Hospital. @UABHeersink Neurology looked a little smaller then, but the passion was just as big. Here’s to 50 years of growth in size, science, and spirit!
