Today, we welcomed one of our amazing administrative assistants back to work after her recent breast cancer diagnosis, and our team showed up in pink to honor her journey and support her continued healing.

We also took time to recognize two incredible breast cancer survivors at one of our clinics. Their courage inspires us daily.

The future of neurology looks bright with this group 🤩🥼🧠

We had our yearly Neurology Meet and Greet at Aplos with our amazing students with UMMC SIGN Group. It was attended by UMMC Neurology attendings, residents, and fellows discussing the various aspects of our amazing Neurology program and the opportunities provided here.
This event is always so fun and gives a broader perspective to promote Neurology as a career choice.
