Neurology Resident Clinician Researcher Program

Department of Neurology

The Resident Clinician Research Track (RCRT) provides residents with the faculty mentorship, administrative guidance, infrastructure, and research facilities to pursue clinical and basic neuroscience research during residency. Similar to other neurology residents, a research track resident will fulfill all required clinical obligations toward certification in neurology by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) in the same four-year period of residency.

Parallel to his/her clinical training, the RCRT resident will also participate in scholarly neuroscience research. The RCRT is an opportunity for a neurology resident to excel in an area of his or her interest and to launch a rewarding academic career.  A RCRT resident will likely become a university-based academic neurologist after completing their residency.
