Neurology and Neuroscience

Neurology and neuroscience are two related fields of science focusing on the study and treatment of the nervous system. Neurology deals primarily with diseases and disorders of the nervous system and the diagnosis, management and treatment of these conditions. Neuroscience is a broader field which encompasses the study of the function and structure of the nervous system, its development, evolution and plasticity, as well as the diseases and disorders of the system. The two fields are closely linked and the study of one can provide insight into the other. Neurology and neuroscience are essential to improving patient care and aiding in the understanding of the causes and treatments of neurological diseases. They also have important implications in fields such as artificial intelligence, robotics and bioengineering.
