Rehabilitation Roundup for November 2019
Greetings!

We'd like to offer a special thanks to Dee Wallace Donovan for coordinating CARE and wish her the best on her medical leave over the next few months.

This month we have Sean Savitz, MD from UT Health Houston coming on 11/15 to give us a talk on the clinical side of stroke, completing this semester's unit on stroke.

Note CARE's own Patrick Spicer, MD, PhD giving a Grand Rounds talk in Neurology on 11/12!

Enjoy the lead up to the Holiday season!

Best,
