  • Sticks and Stones: Why Words in Medicine Can Hurt
    Preeta Gupta, MD | May 24, 2023

     

    As we enter the world of health care, we learn to navigate medical terminology to the point of practiced ease. In addition to mastering pronunciations of anatomic pathways and prescription drug names that start to roll off the tongue, we also learn more logistical medical colloquialisms that fill our day: signout, dispo, codes, and more.

  • Welcome to the Neurology Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) Online Section!

    The Neurology Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) is an online section linked to the larger Journal family that supports the journal’s purpose “to advance the field by presenting new basic and clinical research with emphasis on knowledge that will influence the way neurology is practiced.”

    The founding Co-Editors of the Neurology DEI online section developed the initial mission, vision, and goals statement to provide guidance and accountability:

    Mission: To increase awareness and understanding of DEI and in turn foster the Neurology journal mission “to publish outstanding peer-reviewed original research articles, editorials, and reviews to enhance patient care, education, clinical research, and professionalism.”

    Vision: For the Neurology DEI online section is to be the premier destination for patient care, research, education, policy, and advocacy content related to DEI in neurology.

    Goals: 

    1. To highlight peer-reviewed original research articles, editorials, reviews, and any other content published across the Neurology journal family relating to DEI topics, including contributions that increase our understanding or propose solutions to improve health and healthcare equity.
    2. To provide a welcoming, respectful, and safe forum for the Neurology community to amplify our perspectives and lived experiences.
    3. To share opportunities that advance DEI in health and health care within and beyond the field of neurology.
