Department of Neurology
OUR MISSION
We are committed to ending neurological disease through specialized patient care, innovative research, and the education of tomorrow's physicians. Our department provides comprehensive primary and tertiary neurologic care, as well as neurologic consultation for patients who may return home and patients who must stay overnight.
Message from our Department Chair
Neurology entered this century with never-before-seen advances in understanding the normal functions of the brain and its diseases. The discovery of mutations in disease genes, the use of novel imaging methods, and the development of new drugs and their evaluation in clinical trials have all led to breakthroughs in the treatment of neurological diseases.
