In recent decades, there has been a more critical examination of the Nazi past within German and Austrian neuroscience. The Spiegelgrund euthanasia brains and brain parts in Vienna were finally buried by 2012 and victims were commemorated. More anonymous brain burials occurred in Munich and Tübingen in the early 1990s, which likely did not adequately commemorate victims and, furthermore, a recent comprehensive investigation of all brain specimens held by the Max Planck Society is underway. The Hugo Spatz Prize was renamed by the German Neurological Society, but the Heinrich Pette Prize still exists. This society and another have laudably conducted investigations leading to publications about Nazi-era neuroscience, but much work must still be done. Additionally, Hallervorden–Spatz disease has largely been renamed, but other collaborator eponyms remain in use and raise the question of what response the neuroscience community should take toward these, and toward experimental data from Nazi-era investigations.
