Neurological Disorders Research

A neurological disorder is any disorder of the body's nervous system. This may happen due to structural, chemical or electrical problems occurring in the brain, spinal cord or other nerves, which can result in a range of symptoms. Examples of symptoms include paralysis, muscle weakness, poor coordination, loss of sensation, seizures, confusion, pain and altered levels of consciousness. There are many recognized neurological disorders and much research is being done to find treatments.
