Description

The mail list CHILD-NEURO@WAISMAN.WISC.EDU is an international discussion group which deals with clinical and research topics in Child Neurology. Topics of discussion have included diagnostic and management issues, sources of diagnostic studies and hard-to-come-by medications, and requests for subjects for research studies and patients for case reports. The list is restricted to pediatric neurologists, pediatricians, adult neurologists, and neurosurgeons. Parents of children with neurological problems may wish to visit The Library of The Family Village for a listing of parent and patient oriented Internet resources.

Sending messages

See the Frequently Asked Questions page for some common problems and their solutions.

Setting Digest format

The digest format will compile all of the days messages and send these messages to you in a SINGLE posting (this will reduce the number of messages you receive, but will NOT change the content). To change your subscription to a digest format, send a message to:

Listserv@waisman.wisc.edu

In the text write:

Set Child-Neuro Digest

To return to the undigested setting (we are not a GI list, after all) and receive the individual mailings, send the following text instead:

Set Child-Neuro Nodigest

(You may want to set Digest, for example, if you go out of town. Alternatively, you can "Set Child-Neuro Nomail" to stop your mail when you're gone and then "Set Child-Neuro Mail" to resume it when you return.)

Alternatively, go to the Archives page and click "Join or leave the list (or change settings)."
