The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) is a professional society representing over 40,000 neurologists and neuroscientists.[1] As a medical specialty society it was established in 1948 by A.B. Baker of the University of Minnesota to advance the art and science of neurology, and thereby promote the best possible care for patients with neurological disorders. It is headquartered in Minneapolis and maintains a health policy office in Washington, D.C.

In April 2012, the academy relocated its headquarters to a new 63,000-square-foot building in downtown Minneapolis.[2] The five-story facility cost $20 million to build.[2]
