[[Harvey Williams Cushing]] 14-month Wanderjahr had a profound effect on his subsequent personal [[career]], which in turn ushered in the modern age of [[America]]n neurosurgery. From July [[1900]] to August [[1901]], he traveled to [[Europe]]an neurosurgical centers in [[England]], [[France]], [[Switzerland]], [[Italy]], and [[Germany]]. His excursion happened at a crucial moment in his trajectory; it was built on his existing foundation of [[Halstedian surgical training]] and occurred at a time when interest in the special field of neurological surgery was emerging. The research and clinical experiences on his journey-good and bad-undoubtedly informed his fledgling neurosurgical practice.
