The Department of Neurology at Drexel University College of Medicine is extremely strong in three areas of research: motor neuron disease, pain and dementia. There are multiple clinical trials and basic investigators in each area. The Department of Neurology, along with Johns Hopkins, is investigating high-dose cyclophosphamide with stem cell rescue in many autoimmune diseases. Pain research within the department utilizing NMDA antagonists and TNF-alpha blockers is progressing with national and international collaborators.
Our graduates pass their boards, almost all take fellowships and approximately 75 percent pursue academic careers.
The faculty and residents work hard to achieve our goals while enjoying a collegial atmosphere that makes the residency experience fun.
