Description
Designation: The Osler Institute designates this Live activity for a maximum of 60 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
This comprehensive Virtual Neurology Review is designed to help physicians prepare for the Neurology board examinations. It also helps physicians update their clinical knowledge across the field. The course emphasizes evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care. In addition, it incorporates current concepts, diagnostic strategies, and treatment advances.
This six-day program features lectures covering the full spectrum of Neurology. Therefore, it is an excellent review for physicians preparing for the ABPN written examinations. It is also useful for practicing clinicians seeking a thorough update in the specialty.
The virtual course includes didactic lectures, a complementary searchable e-syllabus, clinical vignette discussions, and embedded review questions to reinforce key concepts. Participants may attend and interact with sessions throughout the six-day program. They will also have access to the recorded lectures for continued review and practice improvement.
Past participants report that the course has helped them refine diagnostic and testing strategies, gain a stronger understanding of major neurologic disease processes, and identify areas of weakness for focused self-study.
The webinar will be delivered via Zoom Cloud Meetings, enabling live audio and visual interaction with faculty. A computer and reliable internet connection are recommended for optimal participation. This virtual format offers the convenience of learning from home or the office. Moreover, participants will benefit from the expertise of Osler faculty and engage with fellow participants.
All participants will receive complimentary streaming access to the course recordings through September 19, 2026, allowing ample time for review and reinforcement of the material.
After this course, each participant should be able to:
- Identify and discuss clinically relevant aspects of neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neuropharmacology
- Interpret neuroimaging studies
- Recognize and describe all significant neurological disorders and significant variants
- Discuss developmental disorders and scientific underpinnings
- Distinguish abnormal behavioral and personality changes
- Describe the use of appropriate psychopharmacology agents for all significant neurologic disorders and significant interactions
- Identify and plan treatment for alcoholism and substance abuse
- Identify and distinguish between altered states of consciousness and memory disorders
- Implement appropriate primary and secondary stroke prevention strategies
