Weill Cornell Department of Neurology


Pediatric Neurology Residency

Residents follow the first-year adult neurology program, but in subsequent years receive instruction specific to their area of specialization. This includes attendance at a weekly pediatric neuroradiology conference, Grand Rounds, the pediatric epilepsy clinic, the muscular dystrophy clinic, and the general pediatric neurology clinic. Residents make daily ward rounds when on service and may see patients with the Division Chief or other members of the Faculty Practice. Six months of the two-year training are elective, and may be spent developing skills in special areas of clinical or basic neuroscience with the approval of the Director. This program requires two years of pediatric training prior to acceptance. Potential candidates should contact Barry Kosofsky Chief of the Division of Pediatric Neurology and Program Director, at (212) 746-3278 for further details and application materials.
