Congratulations to Dr. Megan Still, the 2025 recipient of the Beverly Walters Academic Achievement Award, which is given annually to the resident who most exemplifies the characteristics of academic achievement to include innovative research, mentorship and teaching, and an affinity for lifelong learning while contributing to the field of neurosurgery through scholarly activity. Dr. Still has a strong interest in improving neurosurgical access to resource scarce regions. She received a Fulbright Scholarship in 2023 supporting her travel to Sierra Leone where she spent a year investigating barriers to neurosurgical care in the region. Her project laid the foundation to initiate the first neurosurgery department in the country. The same year she also received the Mission: Brain Humanitarian International Neuroscience Scholarship and was awarded the AANS/CNS Pediatric Section Resident Traveling fellowship. This past year, she served as the Socioeconomic Fellow with the Council of State Neurosurgical Societies, continuing her mission to reduce health care disparities.
