Neurology Department diversity map

The Department of Neurology Finds its Strength Through Diversity

Our Chairman, R. Lee Archer, M.D., had the idea to represent each of our home states and countries by placing a map of the world in our department and we will each place a pin on the map where we are from. We currently have “family” from the following countries:

  • Brazil
  • Germany
  • India
  • Lebanon
  • Pakistan
  • Philippines
  • S. Korea
  • Sudan
  • Taiwan
  • USA

We look forward to filling up the entire map and learning about the different cultures around the world. However, Little Rock is a great place to learn about different cultures.

Cultural Festivals – Little Rock

  • Turkish Food Fest
  • India Fest
  • Jewish Food & Cultural Festival
  • WorldFest

Place of Worship – Little Rock

  • Islamic Center of Little Rock
  • Jewish Federation of Arkansas
  • BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir
