Neurodegenerative diseases are defined as hereditary and sporadic conditions which are characterized by progressive nervous system dysfunction. These disorders are often associated with atrophy of the affected central or peripheral structures of the nervous system. They include diseases such as Alzheimer's Disease and other dementia, Brain Cancer, Degenerative Nerve Diseases, Encephalitis, Epilepsy, Genetic Brain Disorders, Head and Brain Malformations, Hydrocephalus, Stroke, Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig's Disease), Huntington's Disease, Prion Diseases, and others.

Neuro-oncology covers all tumors of the brain and spinal cord, including, astrocytoma, glioma, glioblastoma, ependymoma, and others. These diseases are devastating to patients, and challenging to treat. Common treatments are radiation and, when accessible, surgery, but these tumors almost always recur.  Most therapeutic agents can not cross the blood brain barrier to access the tumor, and are therefore not useful for the treatment of these diseases.

Taking control of your health is important. But staying well can sometimes be a challenge. Some health risks are avoidable, and others are genetic. Knowing your risks of breast cancer, diabetes, stroke and many other major health conditions will help give you the knowledge you need to manage your care.

Neuropharmacology is the study of how drugs that affect cellular function in the nervous system, and the neural mechanisms through the influence behavior. There are two main branches of neuropharmacology: behavioral and molecular. Behavioral neuropharmacology focuses on the study of how drugs affect human behavior (neuropsychopharmacology), including the study of how drug dependence and addiction affect the human brain.

Therapeutics approaches of neurological disorders  is a apart of a cure, sometimes patients with neurological issues can be placed in rehabilitation as part of an effort to restore some lost function. This is usually a hopeful sign, as it’s rare to find a patient assigned to therapy when there’s little to no hope of at least a partial recovery. Therapies for neurological disorders may often consist of: Lifestyle changes to either prevent or minimize the impact of such conditions, Physiotherapy to manage the symptoms and restore some function; Pain management, as much impairment can be associated with considerable discomfort; Medication to either restore function or prevent a worsening of the patient’s condition.

Clinical trials & Case reports of neurological and neurology disorders are ending up being more typical in the general population field. The financial and social costs of neurological and neurology disorders to society are tremendous. Various huge pharmaceutical associations have moved a long way from CNS and neurology investigate. This meeting will allow assigns to expand additional significant encounters into the acknowledged methodology in clinical trials, and furthermore keeping an eye on the challenges in neurology and neurology ask about and by looking latest preclinical and clinical studies.

Neuro diagnostic tests includes use of vital tools when a patient’s condition is thought to be based in the development of techniques allows scientists to see inside the living brain and monitor the nervous system activity. So, there are many imaging techniques available and it takes several times for processing. Some procedures are performed in specialized settings, conducted to determine the presence of a particular disorder or abnormality. Many tests like Computed Tomography (CT). Neuroimaging, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) were previously conducted in a hospital are now performed in a physician’s office or at an outpatient testing facility, with little if any risk to the patient.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term adult disability, affecting approximately 810,000 people each year in the USA. The word stroke indicates that no one is ever prepared for this sudden cause. Stroke survivors and their families can find workable solutions to most difficult situations by approaching every problem with patience, ingenuity, perseverance and creativity. Early recovery and rehabilitation can improve functions and sometimes remarkable recoveries for someone who suffered a stroke.

Stroke is brain damage that occurs secondary to the blockage or breakage of blood vessels in the brain. The causes of stroke in children are many and often not well understood. Diagnosis requires careful clinical examination combined with brain imaging. Early treatment focuses on protecting the brain and keeping blood vessels open to prevent more strokes. Most children experience neurologic deficits with long-term treatments focused on physical, developmental, and psychosocial complications. 

Cerebrovascular refers to blood flow in the brain. Arteries supplying oxygen to the brain are affected and bring about one of a number of cerebrovascular diseases. Most common is a stroke or mini-stroke and sometimes can be hemorrhagic stroke. Cerebrovascular diseases include carotid stenosis, vertebral stenosis and intracranial stenosis, aneurysms, and vascular malformations. Restriction in blood flow can be caused by vessel narrowing, clot formation, blockage or blood vessel rupture. It is estimated that about 6 million deaths are due to cerebrovascular disorders. It is the second leading cause of death in the world and 6th most common cause of disability.
