This course will provide a comprehensive update on ischemic stroke prevention and the evaluation and management of acute ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage, along with other cerebrovascular conditions. Both established and emerging management strategies will be addressed by expert lecturers and discussants for this course. Discussion time will allow attendees to have their questions answered by the discussants. In addition, several debate sessions will highlight current controversies in the field.

Neurology

This comprehensive, one-day course will provide a focused, complete, and advanced update for clinical neurology across subspecialties. Using a clinical case or video-based format, both established and emerging therapies and diagnostic approaches will be addressed by the expert lecturers, panelists, and discussants in this course. It will also augment learning by providing visual teaching materials. Evaluation of common, as well as rare disorders in neurology will be covered by the diverse and knowledgeable course faculty from the rapidly growing NYU School of Medicine Department of Neurology.
