We are leaving behind a century shaped in the light of enlightenment, representing a society based on the secular principles of the Republic of Turkey. Today, we are proud and excited to celebrate the 100th anniversary of our secular republic. Celebrating this precious moment by coming together, respecting the past and looking to the future with hope requires us to be aware of a great responsibility. It is very exciting and valuable for our lives that we, who have come to this day with the educational opportunities offered by the secular republic, take part in the creation of these books that we can leave to the future within the scope of our university's 100 books project on the 100th anniversary of the republic. "Neuroanatomy Lecture Notes", which we have written as faculty members of the Anatomy Department of Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine, will not only be a book that our students will use throughout their education, but also will be a bibliography that they will always keep in their libraries, refer to when necessary, and access the information they need about neuroanatomy. We would like to thank our teachers who shared their knowledge and experiences with us, our families who supported us, and our colleagues who participated in the book as authors.
