The WFNS logo was selected as the winning entry in a contest to create a logo for the organization in the late 1980's. It was the cumulative effort of Steve Harrison, Mark Schornak and Justin Detwiler. The design was presented by Robert Spetzler, MD to the WFNS Executive Committee and received the most votes from among several entries. A cash prize of $1000 was awarded for the winning design, which was shared with the design team of Mario Brock, MD in Berlin, by previous agreement.
