    – These articles focus mainly on neurology research.
    – What is neurology?
    – Definition of neurology: a science involved in the study of the nervous systems, especially of the diseases and disorders affecting them.
    – Neurology research can include information involving brain research, neurological disorders, medicine, brain cancer, peripheral nervous systems, central nervous systems, nerve damage, brain tumors, seizures, neurosurgery, electrophysiology, BMI, brain injuries, paralysis and spinal cord treatments.
