NEUROLOGY (IN-NEUR-IUINA)

The Indiana University School of Medicine Department of Neurology, under the leadership of Professor and Chair Laurie Gutmann, MD, has a rich tradition in academic neurology with a national reputation in neurological education and neuroscience research. The department is located in the Indiana University Health Neuroscience Center, a state-of-the-art outpatient center that unites all the specialties that involve nervous system disorders—Neurology, Neurosurgery, Psychiatry, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Neuropsychology and Neuroradiology. It is also home of the main outpatient Neurophysiology laboratory at IU Health. The adjoining IU School of Medicine Neurosciences Research Building enables clinicians, basic scientists and clinician-scientists to collaborate in an environment that is rarely achieved in academic medicine.

There are many small projects that need to be managed for the SNRI-biomarker core and neurology biorepository.
