TIA Biomarkers Determined Through Proteomics (S30.002)
Conclusions: PBP has been identified as potential serum biomarker for TIA. Larger sample size may find that ceruloplasmin is an additional candidate. Ultimately, a panel of proteins may be required. Larger studies are needed to determine the validity of these proteins in clinical use.Disclosure: Dr. George has nothing to disclose. Dr. Mlynash has nothing to disclose.

Internet Teaching of the Neurologic Examination and OSCE Performance in the Neurology Clerkship (s19.006)
CONCLUSIONS Using www.neuroexam.com significantly improved students’ performance on a Stroke OSCE compared to online NIHSS training, with similar trends for Headache and Neuropathy. General neurologic examination training rather than focused stroke examination training may be more helpful for students, even when examining stroke patients. Online websites with teaching videos may represent a viable model for improving students’ skills with the neurologic examination.

Identifying Novel Biomarkers of Cerebral Ischemia through the Use of Mass Spectroscopy (S15.004)
CONCLUSIONS: Mass spectroscopy-based proteomics is a potential new tool to help identify biomarkers for cerebral ischemia. Ultimately, a panel of proteins may serve as a marker for cerebral ischemia or TIA. We have identified three candidate proteins as possible indicators for cerebral ischemia. Larger studies are needed to confirm our results.

Taking Neurology to the Underserved - A Pilot Initiative in an Urban Homebound Program (P6.007)
CONCLUSIONS: Our pilot program highlights types of chronic neurologic illnesses afflicting the homebound population, treatment interventions utilized, and clinical challenges encountered. By considering the real-world intersection of disease and living environment, trainees gained perspective on the debilitating impact of neurological illness on homebound patients. This pilot program reveals the need and feasibility of neurological home based care as an important clinical, educational, and palliative paradigm.Disclosure: Dr. Ramdhani has nothing to disclose.
