Neurology

Our Mission

Our mission in the Department of Neurology is threefold: (1) to train the next generation of medical students, residents, and fellows in the clinical skills of neurology; (2) to enhance research in the field of neurology; (3) to provide outstanding patient care for patients with neurologic disorders.

Department Profile

The Neurology Department has undergone a number of significant changes in the last several years. I became Chairman of the Department in January, 2001, and since that time we have had a tremendous growth in the number of faculty in the department, a significant increase in the number of our neurology residents, and the initiation of a clinical neurophysiology fellowship training program. We currently have 33 faculty members in the Department of Neurology: 25 full-time faculty members and 8 part-time, adjunct, or volunteer faculty.
