Neurogenetics Program

Advances in basic and clinical research in genetics are changing the understanding and practice of neurology. In Neurogenetics, we evaluate and diagnose adult and pediatric patients with complex neurological disorders in which a genetic connection potentially exists.

Our team provides long-term management of patients with a wide range of inherited disorders of the nervous system, including neurodegenerative and neuromuscular disorders, familial epilepsy, genetic forms of stroke, familial neuroimmunological disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders of children, and autism spectrum disorders. We also counsel family members of our patients to help them understand these conditions and care for their loved ones.
