Novel Treatments and Clinical Research in Child Neurology

The molecular understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms responsible for neurologic diseases of children has led to a remarkable period of research that addresses the root causes of diseases. The promise of this research has been realized with cures and treatments that correct underlying deficiencies. The breakneck rate at which new research is being proposed promises to usher in a transformation of child neurology from a diagnostic and supportive field into an interventional one. Training child neurology residents in clinical research and therapeutic intervention is increasingly important to assure the ongoing ability to support research discoveries and treatment.
