Congratulations to Dr. Kelly Sloane on receiving a CTSA KL2 Mentored Career Development award! Dr. Sloane’s research focuses on the use of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) — a non-invasive, low-cost neuromodulatory intervention — to target cognitive performance in the immediate post-stroke period. She will be collaborating with the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Good Shepherd Penn Partners. 

Congratulations to Dr. Aaron Rothstein and collaborators! Their article “Acute Cerebrovascular Events in Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients” was one of the top 10 most discussed articles published in the journal Stroke in 2020.
