Fellows become firmly grounded in clinical neuroradiology and optimal patient care.
In addition, the pursuit of original research is strongly encouraged, as is publication based upon this research. Mount Sinai Medical Center is a tertiary care center on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. The Departments of Neurosurgery and Neurology also draw patients from across the nation and from other countries. Neurologic research at Mt. Sinai involves strong concentrations of stroke, Parkinson's Disease and related disorders, cortical anatomy and comparative neurobiology, aging and Alzheimer's Disease, and multiple sclerosis. There are four full-time neuropathologists who maintain extensive brain banks of dementia, AIDS, and comparative anatomy of primates.
