Clinical neurophysiology is a medical specialty that studies the central and peripheral nervous systems through the recording of bioelectrical activity, whether spontaneous or stimulated. It encompasses both research regarding the pathophysiology along with clinical methods used to diagnose diseases involving both central and peripheral nervous ...
Clinical Neurophysiology is a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal published by Elsevier. It was established in 1949 as Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology and obtained its current title in 1999.
John C. Rothwell (born 1954) [1] is a Professor of neurophysiology at the UCL Institute of Neurology. His main area of interest is transcranial magnetic stimulation and motor control. His main area of interest is transcranial magnetic stimulation and motor control.
He subsequently trained in neurology and neurophysiology at The National Hospital (Queen Square) in London, and moved to San Francisco in 1976 where he became Professor of Neurology in 1982 at the School of Medicine of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). [2] He was Director of UCSF's Clinical Neurophysiology Laboratories until 2004.
Clinical neuroscience is a branch of neuroscience that focuses on the scientific study of fundamental mechanisms that underlie diseases and disorders of the brain and central nervous system. [1] It seeks to develop new ways of conceptualizing and diagnosing such disorders and ultimately of developing novel treatments.
UCL Neuroscience generates over 30% of the UK's contribution to the most highly cited publications in neuroscience, more than twice as much as any other university. [2] In neuroimaging and clinical neurology, UCL produces 65% and 44% respectively of the UK's contribution to the world's most highly cited papers. [2]
PMP22 point mutations, such as the frameshift mutation Gly94fsX222 (c.281_282insG), can cause clinical overlap between PNPP and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease type 1A. Missense, nonsense, and splice site mutations have been described. [10] PMP22 encodes a 22-kD protein that comprises 2 to 5% of peripheral nervous system myelin. [11]
