The C. U. Ariëns Kappers Prize for the best neurology-related publication by a Doctor of Philosophy student, awarded by the Dutch Neurological Society (Nederlandse Vereniging voor Neurologie).
In 1909, Ariëns Kappers became the first director of the Netherlands Central Institute for Brain Research (Nederlands Instituut voor Hersenonderzoek), a position he maintained until his death in 1946. During his tenure, the institute became a center internationally renowned for its work in comparative neuroanatomy. Two scientific awards are named in his honour:
As a student, Ariëns Kappers was influenced by the work of the German neurologist Ludwig Edinger (1855–1918) and Dutch anatomist Louis Bolk (1866–1930).
During his career, he amassed around 450 whole brains from over 300 species and over 30,000 brain slices.
