Advanced Neurology

Catalog description

The Advanced Neurology Clerkship provides an in-depth experience with a diverse patient population and a wide range of neurological conditions. Students will be immersed in both inpatient and outpatient clinical environments, where they will learn to perform initial patient assessments and formulate differential diagnoses. They will present cases to attending physicians, write orders, interpret diagnostic studies, and discuss patients with consultants. A key component of the clerkship is solidifying the neurological examination skills and learning how to adapt it to the patient complaint and clinical context.
