Jennifer P Rubin

Personal profile

Research Interests

I am a child neurologist who sees children with general neurologic conditions, both in the city and in various outreach clinics. I also have additional specialized training and interest in demyelinating disease (multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis, neuromyelitis optica) and leukodystrophies. I am the co-director of Lurie's Leukodystrophy Care Center.
