Ep.15 - Past & Present - Neurology Casenotes

    • Science

Casenotes Past & Present is a Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh podcast.

In this episode we explore the history of neurology. We start with the history of the word neurology, before uncovering some of the key figures in the history of neurology – from physicians in the 1600s to the 1900s and the origins of Parkinson’s Disease.

Then we talk to Dr Will Whiteley – a neurologist working today.

And we end with the case study of one of the most famous neurological diseases in history – hysteria.
