Collaborative Divisions
The Division of Cognitive and Behavioral Neurology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital provides a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis and management of patients who have problems with memory, executive functions, attention, language, emotion, or behavior due to disease, injury, or developmental disorders of the central nervous system. Patients receive the highest standard of neurological, psychiatric, and social work care for the treatment of their conditions. The Division of Neuropsychiatry is integrated with the Cognitive and Behavioral Neurology Division of the Department of Neurology, as well as our Neuropsychology program and Division of Geriatric Psychiatry.
