About

Biography

I am Jesus Salas, DO, assistant professor in the Department of Neurology at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and I specialize in neurohospital medicine, neuroimmunology and complex neurological disorders. My research focuses on clinical and scholarly projects that advance the understanding and treatment of neurological disease while improving care for hospitalized patients with neurological conditions.

My experience in academic medicine has shaped my career as both a clinician and educator. During my training at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, I developed a passion for teaching medical students and resident physicians while also caring for patients with complex neurological conditions. Teaching has reinforced the importance of using thoughtful clinical problem-solving, staying current with advances in neurology and communicating complex information clearly.

Mentorship has played an important role in my professional development and inspires me to provide the same guidance to future physicians. As an academic neurohospitalist, I enjoy integrating patient care, education and clinical research with the goal of improving neurological care and helping train the next generation of physicians.

As an assistant professor in the Division of Neurohospitalist and Teleneurology in the Ohio State College of Medicine, I educate and mento medical students and neurology and internal medicine resident physicians through bedside teaching, clinical supervision and didactic instruction. I also participate in clinical research and scholarly work focused on neuroimmunology, neurohospital medicine and complex neurological disorders.

I value opportunities to connect with diverse patient populations. Fluent in English and Spanish, I am committed to clear communication with patients and families and to fostering meaningful partnerships in care, education and research.
