Why explore disciplines?
Exploring disciplines broadens your perspective, deepens your expertise, and equips you with tools from the entire healthcare spectrum of practice.
Explore Disciplines


Functional Neurology
Functional neurology goes beyond symptom management. This domain empowers clinicians to assess, interpret, and influence nervous system function—helping patients achieve life-changing outcomes.


Functional Medicine
Functional medicine complements neurology by addressing the metabolic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that shape brain and nervous system health. This domain helps clinicians see the bigger picture.


Physical Medicine & Rehab
This discipline gives clinicians the tools to bridge physical medicine and neurology—helping patients recover movement, balance, and independence after injury or dysfunction.


Human Performance & Regenerative Medicine
This domain gives clinicians insight into cutting-edge strategies for optimizing brain performance, accelerating recovery, and supporting longevity through advanced interventions.


Research Science
Research is the backbone of clinical excellence. This discipline equips you to critically evaluate studies, contribute to the scientific community, and integrate the latest evidence into your neurological practice.
Carrick Institute is built by pioneers, researchers, and clinicians who teach what they practice.

Common questions
Have questions? You’re not the only one.
Can I study more than one subject?
Absolutely. Many learners explore multiple subjects to match their patient populations and expand their skill set.
Do I need to study subjects in a specific order?
We recommend following the suggested sequence, but it’s flexible. Many clinicians mix and match based on their interests.
Are these subjects CE-approved?
Yes. Most modules are approved for CEs in the U.S. and recognized by international boards.
What if I’ve never studied clinical neuroscience before?
Start with the Getting Started path. It will give you the foundation to get the most out of individual subjects.
Still have questions?
