Portrait of Professor Sir Graham Teasdale
Together with the late Bryan Jennett (another Fellow of the College), Professor Teasdale developed the Glasgow Coma Scale. Today the GCS is used universally as a tool to assess the conscious state of a patient.
Professor Teasdale served as President of the College between 2003 and 2006, and was awarded a Knighthood for his services to neurosurgery in 2006. He is pictured here wearing the President’s badge over a College tie, and holding his Knight Bachelor’s badge in his left hand.
