XDP Brain Cutting

The Department of Laboratories and Department of Neurosciences successfully organised a brain cutting session for 2 brains of X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) patients. Residents from the various Adult Neurology programs as well as the Pathology residents from PGH and PCMC filled up the room. The team from Massachusetts General Hospital with our very own Dr. Aloysius Domingo were also in attendance.
