About Us
Emory University's Vascular Neurology Program serves a diverse population in the Atlanta metropolitan area and southeastern region of the US. Our clinical, training and research teams are based at Emory University Hospital and Grady Memorial Hospital. Our research focus includes the areas of acute stroke therapeutics, prevention and recovery. Through our Marcus Stroke & Neuroscience Center site at Grady Hospital we are proud to have contributed significantly to the development and discovery of the safety and effectiveness of stent-retriever technology in treating patients with large artery occlusion, as well as being a major contributor to the NINDS tPA Stroke Trial. We are one of the top recruiting sites in the NIH NETT and StrokeNet clinical trial collaborations as a Regional Coordinating Center.
