Abstract
Bernard Bornstein (1900-1975) was one of a few Polish-Jewish neurologists who escaped the tragic fate of Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland. Educated at the University of Vienna and practicing until the war in Cracow, Bornstein in his scientific work dealt comprehensively with various neurological topics, bringing to Israeli medicine the best of pre-War European neurological diagnostics and combining them with the latest achievements of genetics. He was a teacher of many prominent Israeli neurologists. On the basis of previously unknown archival sources, the fate of Bornstein and his family during World War II was reconstructed.
