Become a Distinguished Colleague of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­

Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ member designations

The Distinguished Colleague of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ (DÂé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­) designation, while not a class of membership, is a formal designation that is available to Researcher, Advanced Practice Provider, and Business Administrator members of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­.

“The Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ advocates for physician-led neurology care teams and recommends the clinical leader of a multi-disciplinary team be a Board-certified neurologist,” said Carlayne Jackson, MD, FÂé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­, Immediate Past President of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­. “The Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­ also recognizes and supports the expanded collaborative role that Researchers, Advanced Practice Providers, and Business Administrators play in physician-led neurological care, advances in neurological research, and their engagement as members of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Ó³»­.”

The integration of Researchers, Advanced Practice Providers, and Business Administrators in physician-led neurology care teams creates a model of care that is crucial to improving access, quality, and continuity of care for people with neurological disease.
