Duke Neurology Trivia
Fifteen years ago, our faculty and trainees posed for the official 2006 portrait of the then division of Neurology. The photo, includes several faces who are long-time pillars of our Department, including Mark Skeen, MD, Rod Radtke, MD, Joel Morgenlander, MD, and others. Among those individuals are two fellows who have since becomenational leaders in their fields. Can you identify who those two faculty members are and spot them in the photo below?
