Welcome to the Movement Disorders Program Web site. Since its beginning in 2001, the Movement Disorders Program has grown exponentially in its endeavors at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). The Movement Disorders Program has become the hub for collaborations with investigators from many departments and centers at MUSC. These interactions contribute to improved health care for patients and increased knowledge about movement disorders and the nervous system. Our activities in patient care, research and education are highlighted throughout this Web site. We hope that this resource will help you whether you are a patient, a caregiver, a scientist, a member of the health care profession, or just simply interested in movement disorders. This site is continually updated and we are open to suggestions about the content we provide. Feel free to send any recommendations or thoughts to hinsonvk@musc.edu.

Sincerely,
Vanessa K. Hinson, MD, PhD
Director, The Movement Disorders Program
