The study of the nervous system and its in-depth knowledge has been one of the most complex obstacles that science, and more specifically medicine, has had to face. To this day, the epidemiology of many pathologies that affect human beings is still unknown, which hinders the work not only of health professionals, but also of the professionals who collaborate in their work by providing alternatives for their treatment, such as drugs. However, in recent years considerable progress has been made in the knowledge of the already established psychiatric and neurological diseases such as Epilepsy, Migraine, different types of stroke or cerebral edema, among others, which has allowed the design of formulas that help patients suffering from them to significantly improve their quality of life. 

With all this, TECH has designed a complete program focused on Hospital Pharmacology of the Nervous System . This is a program oriented to serve as a guide for graduates who need to get up to date in this field. Thus, through 300 hours of the best theoretical, practical and additional content, the specialist will be able to delve into the latest developments associated with the different diseases, in addition to analyzing the latest recommendations based on the clinical criteria of the patient and whether they are adults or children.
