Neurology is the study of the nervous system that deals with physiology, anatomy, functioning, and disorders of the system. It discusses about the diagnostic techniques, tools, and cure for diseases involving the central and peripheral nervous system. Neurology research can be both basic research as well as applied research. Basic Neurology involves getting a better understanding of the functioning of the nervous system at the tissue or cell level, and identifying specific genes or proteins implicated in neurological diseases. Applied Neurology is aimed at developing and refining cures for neurological disorders.
