Each program is contacted annually for updates. Many of the therapies available through the Program utilize the stereotactic neurosurgical techniques developed at Stanford.
Stated learning outcomes: Able to conduct a multidisciplinary clinic for movement disorders and select appropriate patients and procedures; Able to perform a functional stereotactic intervention (DBS or ablation) These should add meaningfully to the understanding of functional neurological diseases and their treatment. Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery Fellowship WVU Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute 33 Medical Center Drive Morgantown, WV 26506 Contact: Ali Rezai, MD. The Cleveland Clinic Department of Neurosurgery offers a one-year fellowship position in Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery. We will contact you within one business day to review your appointment request. This is a fellowship designed for physicians and post-doctoral scientists to train in functional neurosurgery and research in Parkinson's disease. This program is CAST-accredited. Clinical fellows will participate fully in the evaluation of patients in the outpatient clinic and will learn all aspects of surgical treatments. Functional Neurosurgery Pediatric Neurosurgery The Department’s Division of Functional Neurosurgery treats patients with treatment resistant neurological disorders, such as epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, chronic pain and spasticity. We offer a 1 or 2 year fellowship, which is awarded on a competitive basis according to academic credentials and the perceived potential for future excellence. The fellow will participate fully in the evaluation of patients in the outpatient clinic and will learn all aspects of surgical treatments.
The fellowship includes both clinical and researches component each of 1 year for clinicians and a 2-year research fellowship for basic neuroscientists. The Johns Hopkins Functional Neurosurgery fellowship is a one-year training program approved by the Committee on Accreditation of Subspecialty Training (CAST) of the Society of Neurological Surgeons. and Leomar Y Ballester, M.D., PhD.Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery FellowshipThe Functional Neurosurgery Programme at the Toronto Western Hospital and the University of Toronto is dedicated to the treatment of Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders. For a listing of SNS Committee on Advanced Subspecialty Training (CAST) fellowships… The Yale Functional Neurosurgery program encompasses advanced surgical treatment of movement disorders, spasticity, epilepsy, neuropsychiatric disorders and intractable pain. These functional disorders account for more worldwide disability than cancer, heart disease, or HIV.
