The Departments of Neurology and Neurological Surgery in the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center are offering a series of accredited webinars to educate clinicians on new developments in neurology and neurosurgery. The series is based on a number important developments that have been made in academia but are still being applied in clinical practice. Clinicians are still learning how recent advancements are improving patient care. This information should be made available to a wider clinical population. Expert opinions are also important.
