Neurosciences is the medical specialty that focuses on the nervous system – the brain, spine and peripheral nervous system, as well as the ear, nose and throat. It is a complex, highly specialized network that communicates information between your brain, muscles and senses. It controls your thinking and your movement, and it interactions between you and the world around you – so a neurologic disorder or injury can change your life forever.
