In neurology, our goal is to bring scientific research and discovery from the bench to the bedside to improve your treatment and quality of life.

We offer:

  • Specialized care: Our neurologists specialize in multiple areas, including epilepsy, stroke, movement disorders, memory disorders, and more. This subspecialization allows us to offer specialty services and a level of expertise only available at few centers in the nation.
  • Recognized expertise: Our physicians include several regional and national neurology experts. The WashU Medicine department of neurology is nationally recognized as a leader in noninvasive neurology treatment.
  • Expert diagnostic tools: We have a range of neurodiagnostic testing tools, including sleep studies, electroencephalography (EEG), and electromyography (EMG). A positron emission tomography (PET) scanner, a state-of-the art brain imaging technique invented and developed at WashU Medicine, is located in the neurology intensive care unit at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. The unit is one of the largest and most sophisticated in the United States.
  • AIDS neurology: Our neurologists are part of the Neurologic AIDS Research Consortium (NARC). This consortium is sponsored by the National Institutes of Health to design and conduct clinical trials for improving therapies for AIDS patients with neurologic conditions. As new challenges arise in the fight against the AIDS epidemic, NARC continues to develop relevant studies.
