Penn Neurology research mentors
Here are some starting points to identifying research projects and mentors.
Spreadsheet of faculty research activities
John Detre has prepared a spreadsheet that lists the faculty, their track (tenure, clinician educator), rank (assistant, associate, or full professor), and research areas of interest.
The spreadsheet is available here: https://docs.zoho.com/file/zdpjxed7ecb53b12846f2a5ca26ccb353325e
