🧵Why I Chose Movement Disorders & How You Can Explore It I’ve always wanted to do neurology, but my path took some turns. What never changed: my fascination with movement. As a PGY2 resident, I’m often asked: Why Movement Disorders? Here’s why & how you can explore the field!…
Our first-ever issue of Continuum dedicated to disorders of CSF dynamics is online and shipping! Why did we decide to dedicate a full issue to these disorders? 1/ 🌊🌊🌊
Can’t wait! Very excited for this issue.
Can’t wait to read the entire @ContinuumAAN issue on Movement disorders. Debuts in a week!

A case that reminds us with the legend #OliverSacks and his masterpiece #Musicophilia Neurology is fun! @AANmember #NeurologyRF #Neurology
Take the latest #NeurologyRF quiz! A 39-year-old man with a history of migraine was seen at the epilepsy clinic after experiencing one tonic-clonic seizure in the context of sleep deprivation. He was started on levetiracetam and had no subsequent seizures.
The #neurology Resident’s course offers an authentic and inspiring introduction to this fast-paced field. “An excellent way to explore the humanity of medicine and to connect with patients, while still having a science-focused course.” loom.ly/Pp6obbk
