Neurophysiologist

A neurophysiologist is a scientist or medical professional who studies how the nervous system works, focusing on the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. They utilize techniques like electrical recordings and functional tests to understand how nerve signals are generated, transmitted, and processed. This knowledge helps diagnose and treat neurological disorders such as epilepsy, nerve injuries, or multiple sclerosis. Essentially, neurophysiologists explore the electrical activity and functioning of the nervous system to improve health outcomes and advance our understanding of how the brain and nerves coordinate body activities.
