The Department of Neurology is deeply committed to fostering a diverse environment within our institution as well as engaging in outreach to educate and benefit the vibrant community around us. Internally, we strive to recruit, develop, and nurture students, trainees, and faculty from varied backgrounds and experiences. As well, many of our faculty engage in research that explores the intersection of patient backgrounds and neurological diseases. Our community outreach includes seminars, screenings, and other initiatives that promote healthful living and address health issues that most affect the diverse community we serve.
