Summary
Abstract There is a marked gap between our ability to treat neurologic diseases and our rapidly increasing understanding of normal nervous system function, disease pathogenesis, and disease pathophysiology. Improving treatment of neurologic diseases requires considerably improved integration of burgeoning basic neuroscience with clinical practice across the translational spectrum from basic discovery through translational and clinical research. An obstacle to improved integration of disease-oriented neuroscience research activities and more efficient translation is a deficit of appropriately t
