Founded in 1958, Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University is a large-scale tertiary general hospital focusing on neuroscience and geriatrics, focusing on the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and undertaking the tasks of medical treatment, education, scientific research, prevention, health care and rehabilitation. It is one of the start-up bases of neuroscience in China and one of the cradles of cultivating neuroscience talents.
Under the guidance of the strategy of "rejuvenating the hospital through science and education and strengthening the hospital with talents", the various branches of neuroscience have continued to grow and develop: neurology is a national key discipline and was once the chairman unit of the Neurology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association; The Department of Neurosurgery and Beijing Cerebrovascular Disease Center are the main participating units of national key disciplines. The Center for Functional Neurosurgery and Movement Disorder Treatment has been named "Clinical Center of Outstanding Achievement" by an international authoritative organization, and is a leading team in this field in China. Beijing Neurology Consultation Center is known as the "ultimate diagnostic institution" in China; Neurointervention, neuropathology, neurorehabilitation, neuromedical imaging, neuropharmacology, neurobiochemistry, neuroelectrophysiology, gene and cell diagnosis, vascular ultrasound diagnosis and other disciplines go hand in hand, condensing into a neuroscience cluster with leading comprehensive strength in China and attracting attention at home and abroad. The Department of Vascular Surgery is led by Professor Wang Zhonghao, chief expert of vascular surgery in China and academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Professor Zhang Jian, dean, and has become one of the leading teams in this discipline in China. At present, it has 2 national key disciplines, 1 national key cultivation discipline, 6 national key clinical specialties (projects), and 3 Beijing key clinical specialties.
The Beijing Geriatric Medical Research Center and the Beijing Geriatric Health Care and Disease Prevention and Control Center, which are established in this hospital, are responsible for the leading and executive management functions of the elderly health service system in Beijing. It has been built into a unique geriatric system in China that integrates management, service, medical treatment, scientific research, education and other functions, and has become an important base and characteristic brand of geriatric research that plays an exemplary role internally and is a window for communication externally.
