As a world-renowned research institution, our section is committed to improving the quality of life of patients who have suffered a stroke through long-term patient care, ongoing basic research and clinical trials and continuing medical education. Multiple faculty members seek to understand the basics of stroke pathophysiology, genetics and treatment.

Additionally, we are involved in multiple ongoing clinical trials that seek to push the boundaries of medical and surgical management of stroke care.

Faculty, trainees and research coordinators gather for some fun at the annual International Stroke Conference, Washington University reception.
