URMC Neurology
Neuromuscular Disease Unit
The Neuromuscular Disease Center provides diagnosis
and comprehensive treatment of Neuromuscular diseases in both adults
and children. Within the Neuromuscular Disease Center, there are
several specialty clinics that include the ALS Clinic,
the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) Clinic / Neuromuscular
Clinic, Neuropathy Clinic, and the
Periodic Paralysis, Myotonia, and the Episodic Ataxia Clinic. The
Neuromuscular labs include the URMC EMG Lab and the neuropathology
lab.

Research in the Neuromuscular Disease Center includes therapeutic
trials, pathophysiology, animal and cellular models of disease,
molecular
genetic alterations, pathomechanisms
and identification of new treatments of neuromuscular diseases. Our
goals are to understand the molecular pathology and its relationship
to the metabolic alterations that cause the manifestations of each
disease and to develop more rational approaches to their treatment.
