American Neurological Association Launches “ANA Investigates” Podcast explores world of academic neurology and neuroscience

(MOUNT LAUREL, NJ, October 13, 2019) — The American Neurological Association (ANA), the professional organization representing the nation’s top academic neurologists and neuroscientists, will launch its first podcast today during its 144th Annual Meeting in St. Louis.

The “ANA Investigates” podcast, focused on the research and professional interests of ANA members, will appeal to anyone interested in cutting-edge research into stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, movement disorders, sleep disorders, traumatic brain injury, and other neurologic diseases. The podcast will also explore the career paths of the ANA’s more distinguished members, as well as discussing topical issues in the field, making it an excellent professional tool for early-career physicians and researchers.

“ ‘ANA Investigates’ is by ANA members, for ANA members,” said Romer Geocadin, MD, Professor of Neurology, Anesthesiology-Critical Care Medicine, and Neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and Chair of the ANA Online Education Task Force. “Its content depends on the members and what they want to hear. So there will be multiple topics from cutting-edge science to the way we practice, packaged in ways that are relevant for our members.”

“This podcast is also being considered for publication in the journals of the ANA,” Geocadin added. “A summary of the podcast will be subject to peer review, which means that there will be a scientific rigor, which brings forth a different level of quality control.”
