Neuroinfectious Diseases

Many infections, including HIV, endocarditis, and COVID-19, can affect the brain and nervous system. With training in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, infectious neurology, vascular neurology, and neurocritical care, our doctors are uniquely able to provide expert care to people with these infections, as well as tropical infections and infectious causes of stroke.
