Abstract

The Barrow Neurological Institute (BNI), founded in 1961, is in partnership with St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center and part of the Catholic Healthcare West system. The BNI is a relative newcomer to academic neuroscience. However, since its inception it has grown to become an international destination for neurologic disease. This article describes the history of the institute as it has grown over the years in its commitment to excellence in patient care, education, and research.
