Rezső Bálint (October 22, 1874 – May 23, 1929) was a Hungarian neurologist and psychiatrist.

Rezso Balint’s first writings, published while he was still a medical student, were case studies examining muscular atrophy in hemiplegia.

In 1907, Dr. Balint recorded his observations of a patient who suffered from a unique constellation of neurologic symptoms including fixation of gaze, neglect of objects in his periphery, and misreaching for target objects.

The patient was noted to first experience these symptoms following damage to the posterior parietal lobes.

This “triple-syndrome complex” was later named “Balint’s Syndrome.” Bálint studied medicine in Budapest, graduating in 1897.
