Barrow expands global neurological care with South Africa partners
Nov. 18
Joining “Arizona Horizon,” to discuss this new partnership is the program manager at Barrow Global Neurology, Dr. Huaim Mubarak.
Barrow Neurological Institute is expanding its footprint in global neurological care, education, and research through a new partnership with a South African university.
The Barrow Global Neurology program has collaborated with the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa. This program is intended to allow neurology residents to gain clinical experience and a deeper understanding of global neurological care through a unique exchange opportunity.
The Barrow Global Neurology program builds on more than 15 years of collaboration between Dr. Racette and colleagues at the University of the Witwatersrand. Dr. Racette spent years researching the neurological effects of occupational and environmental manganese exposure in South Africa.
Barrow is also home to the Franke Global Neuroscience Education Center, which helps address neurological needs in developing countries. This is done by educating and training healthcare professionals.
