Neurology

Neurology is the field of medical science that studies the nervous system — the brain, spinal cord and the body’s complex network of nerves. Clinical neurologists diagnose and treat diseases of the nervous system to help people with neurological diseases or injuries live a more fulfilling, less disabling life.
