Program Overview
Neurology is a rapidly advancing field with many subspecialties — and staying current is a critical public health challenge. Neurologic disorders already affect 1 in 3 people worldwide, and conditions like stroke and dementia are expected to grow significantly in prevalence. This Harvard Medical School accredited two-day course prepares clinicians to address vanguard topics including generative AI in neurologic care, neurotherapeutics, and gene therapies — delivered in an accessible, on-demand video format with recorded case discussions, Q&A sessions, and expert panel roundtables.
Learning Objectives
- Integrate Emerging Technologies: Evaluate and apply cutting-edge tools including generative AI, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and deep brain stimulation across movement disorders, epilepsy, and headache
- Compassionate & Equitable Care: Address neurological conditions in the context of global health disparities, transgender neurology, functional neurological disorders, and substance abuse
- Subspecialty Mastery: Apply advances in dementia care, neurogenetics, neuroimmunology, and surgical management to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcomes
