Interviews for the clinical neurophysiology positions are conducted in February the year prior to the start of the fellowship. Indicate in your application if you are interested in a different track.

Apply for 性奴调教's Clinical Neurophysiology Fellowship

• Prepare fellows to independently practice clinical neurophysiology through the measurement and assessment of function of the central, peripheral and autonomic nervous systems and skeletal muscles for the purpose of diagnosing, monitoring and treatment of neurological disorders.
• Provide rigorous training in all aspects of clinical neurophysiology, encompassing the pathophysiologic basis of neurologic disorders as well the scientific basis of neurophysiologic diagnosis and the clinical practice of neurodiagnostic studies to evaluate and manage patients.
• Exercise the six ACGME Core Competencies:
  • Compassionate, effective and appropriate patient care
  • Medical knowledge
  • Practice-based learning and improvement
  • Interpersonal and communication skills by exercising empathy, respect and consideration in interaction with patients and families
  • Professionalism
  • System-based practice

• During training, fellows attain skills in performing the following procedures:
  Evoked potentials
  • EMG/NCV
  • Single fiber EMG
  • EEG
  • Autonomic function testing
  • Botulinum toxin injection
  • Electrodiagnostic assessment of movement disorders.
    They also attain skills in the clinical management of different neuromuscular diseases, epilepsy, diagnosis and treatment. During rotation through epilepsy and sleep services, our fellows become knowledgeable in epilepsy video monitoring, WADA angiogram, placement of depth electrodes and polysomnography.
• The clinical neurophysiology fellowship aims to develop a concept of different electrodiagnostic procedures, including motor and sensory nerve conduction studies, diagnostic electromyography, single fiber electromyography, evoked potential studies, electrodiagnostic movement disorder assessment, electroencephalography, polysomnography and testing of autonomic functions. Fellows will also be able to formulate a diagnosis and manage congenital and developmental neuromuscular disorders, epilepsy, trauma and sequelae.
• Our fellows learn about the indications, application, performance and interpretation of different neurophysiological studies. They also become familiar with the diagnosis and management of different neuromuscular diseases, epilepsy (intractable and non-intractable) and some movement disorders.
• Our fellow aspire to be highly respectful and responsive towards the needs of patients and families. They are committed to working in a compassionate environment that provides excellent care and ongoing professional development.

We are excited to see the burgeoning interest in neurovascular disease and neurointervention among the next generation of neuroscience physicians. With the adoption of aneurysm coiling and mechanical thrombectomy as standard-of-care treatments, it is a time of growth in the field.

We are proud of our long tradition of aggressive, procedurally oriented stroke care. 性奴调教's Souers Stroke Institute was founded in 1991, and its first director, Camilo Gomez, M.D., is often credited with founding interventional neurology as a subspecialty while also being an early practitioner of neurocritical care.

Randall Edgell, M.D., was the first fellowship-trained interventional neurologist in the St. Louis region and founded 性奴调教's neurointerventional fellowship program in 2009. Regardless of which track you pursue, 性奴调教's fellowship training will equip you for the future of neurovascular care.

We offer up to three ACGME-accredited positions per year with a variety of options for additional training:

• Vascular Neurology Fellowship: A one-year, ACGME-accredited program.
• Stroke Academician Track: The ACGME year plus one additional year focused on clinical research. There is also an option to pursue a Master of Science in Outcomes Research or a Master of Public Health degree.
• Vascular and Neurointerventional Stroke Neurology Fellowship: This three-year program combines the ACGME vascular neurology year with two years of neurointerventional training program.
• Neurointerventional Stroke Neurology Fellowship: a two-year stand-alone neurointerventional training program.

The requirements for the vascular neurology fellowship include prior completion of a neurology residency. The requirements for the neurointerventional fellowship are different depending on your specialty:

• Neurosurgeon: Prior completion of a neurosurgery residency.
• Radiology: Prior completion of radiology and diagnostic neuroradiology residencies.
• Neurology: Prior completion of neurology and vascular neurology or neurointensive care residencies.

We accept applications for the vascular neurology fellowship through the and participate in the Vascular Neurology Fellowship Match Program through the .

Applications must include 3 letters of recommendation.
