The course

 The Postgraduate Course in Neurology is an annual continuing medical education activity of the department where short courses in Neurology are given to primary care physicians, internists, pediatricians and nurses in the provinces and cities outside Metro Manila, especially in areas where there are few to no neurologist.
 This course aims to emphasize and deliver the latest updates in the different areas of neurological diseases and how diagnosis and management may be delivered. These areas include cerebrovascular disorders, dementia, movement disorders, psychiatry, seizures, central nervous system infection, headache, dizziness, low back pain. This course is intended to provide continued learning to physicians and allied health professionals.
