Dr. Virmani's Research

During his medical school training, his research in basic neuroscience explored the physiologic mechanisms by which neurons in the brain communicate with one other using chemical neurotransmitters at the synapse.

While at Columbia University for his fellowship, Virmani became interested in the principles underlying the phenomenon of freezing of gait in Parkinson disease. He undertook a clinicopathologic study under the mentorship of Dr. Stanley Fahn and Dr. Jean-Paul Vonsattel (Department of Pathology, Columbia University Medical Center). He also worked with Dr. Fahn to start a clinical trial using a novel motor-neuronotrophic factor for potential neuroprotection in Parkinson disease.

He continues to pursue his research interests at UAMS.

Dr. Virmani gave an injection himself, as he's done in past appointments. These injections must be given in very specific areas to be most effective. Dr. Virmani wants to insure the injection is properly made. Other items, such as BP, and history, are taken by others. Too many other doctors are not so hands-on, and this is an extremely good thing in this instance.
