Description of Clinical Expertise
267 After 24 years in private practice as well as maintaining a clinical faculty appointment at the University of Pennsylvania teaching residents along with hosting residents for monthly rotations in my practice, I decided to join as a full-time faculty member in the department of neurology and the general neurology division. I continue to maintain a very busy clinical practice in neurology with several of my own sessions weekly often working with residents and medical students during these. I also staff two resident clinic sessions a week during which I staff the residents with their patients.8

Description of Other Expertise
27f In addition to providing clinical neurology training to our residents, I also provide a global health experience for those residents who have an interest and choose to accompany me on twice annual trips to a rural part of Northern Tanzania. I have developed a neurology program there that delivers both outpatient and inpatient care as well as provides training to Tanzanian doctors, clinical officers and nurses regarding the evaluation and treatment of neurologic disorders. A large focus of our program has become the long term management of epilepsy to better the lives of those individuals affected with this disorder.e 7 1d 1f
