Advances in Neurological Disorders

Abnormality in the brain, spinal cord or other nerves triggers the symptoms producing the disorders of the nervous system.  Even though the brain and spinal cord are surrounded by tough membranes they are very susceptible if compromised. Neurological disorders occur at several locations and are categorized on the primary location affected. There are more than 600 diseases of nervous system, among which Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy and brain tumors are mostly affected. The prime challenge is to understand the pathogenesis of the disease and develop effective forms to cure. Research in this field is to be advanced to reduce the death rate.
