Clinical and Translational Neurology

Clinical Neurology:

Clinical neurology is a division of neuroscience that concentrates on the scientific study of fundamental mechanisms that include diseases and disorders of the brain and central nervous system. It finds to develop new ways of conceptualizing and diagnosing such disorders and ultimately of developing novel treatments.

• Clinical neurophysiology
• Neurodevelopmental disabilities
• Vascular neurology
• Behavioral neurology
• Child neurology

Translational Neurology:

Translational neurology is the field of study which applies basic neuroscience research to translate or develop into clinical applications and novel therapies for nervous system disorders. The field encompasses areas such as deep brain stimulation, brain machine interfaces, neurorehabilitation and the development of devices for the sensory nervous system such as the use of auditory implants, retinal implants, and electronic skins.
