Neurology

There are hundreds of diseases of the nervous system that affect millions of people worldwide.These diseases can lead to a reduced ability to do certain things. For example, it may become more difficult to engage with others, move around, or remember things.Over time, these changes can alter aspects that define a person. Sometimes, abilities are lost. When children are affected by such diseases, it can also influence their development and what their future holds. The strain on the body, mind, and emotions can become immense.

Neurology deals with the structure, function, and disorders of the nervous system. The nervous system consists of the central nervous system — which includes the brain and spinal cord — and the peripheral nervous system, which comprises peripheral nerves, nerve roots, and nerve plexuses. Ongoing research is necessary to develop better treatment methods and to advance preventive measures.
