Pediatric neurology is emerging as an integral and essential role in the practice of modern medicine. Much of the growth for this ever expanding field is due to the recent recognition by scientists, physicians, and researchers that many genetic and congenital diseases have a relationship to the neuromuscular system. Because of this, child neurologists work hand in hand with many professionals in the fields of genetics, orthopedics, and child psychology, to name a few, in order to treat and research the neuromuscular diseases that particularly affect children.
