It is my alma mater for the learning of neurology in particular and medical profession in
general. I learnt here treating and dealing with the patients apart from being learning

expand my knowledge across the subjects. I also learnt research methodology and use
of computer and medical statistics to have clarity of raw data and arrival to firm unbiased
results.
