Marshall University Neurology Residency Program

#Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain that causes seizures. It affects approximately two million people in the U.S. For individuals with #autism, epilepsy is more common than in the general population. healthy.marshallhealth.org/2022/11/21/loo… #EpilepsyAwarenessMonth

Purple for Epilepsy 💜

Residents participate in a variety of events outside of work, including journal club discussions. Last night they met for dinner to discuss publications regarding VNS parameter adjustments and updates in the surgical care of epilepsy

Our residents participated in the #WalkToEndEpilepsy during #EpilepsyAwareness month. The march was led by our double bananas!

Today, the final steel beam was placed on the new @CabellHuntHosp medical office building. This will be the new home base for #MarshallHealth's Neurology and Gastroenterology services and a state-of-the-art endoscopy suite in 2024.

Our Residency Curriculum includes Business Medicine lectures from Dept Chair, Dr. Paul Ferguson. Yesterday, we spent time learning with case examples about updated Billing Codes for outpatient Neuro clinics. #ThunderingNerds #MarshallUniversity #Neuromatch2023 #BusinessinMedicine

A virtual reality workshop was held for the residents to experience what it feels like to have a seizure, enabling them to better understand and manage generalized seizures. #ThunderingNerds #GoHerd #MarshallUniversity #EpilepsyAwareness #Epilepsy #Neuromatch2023

Spent the last month studying Epilepsy! Our EEG staff even came in for some hands on training and we had a volunteer, PGY2 Dr. Hashim Inam! Don’t worry, we confirmed… He Has a Brain! 🧠🤓🦬
