AAN Residents, Fellows, and Post-doctoral Grads
What do you need to know about the Residency In-Service Training Exam? How can you get a fellowship? How do you become involved in the AAN? How can you bridge the gap after receiving your PhD?
The AAN provides you with the following resources to help answer all these questions as you progress in your career in neurology:
AAN Consortium of Neurology Residents and Fellows
Joining the AAN Consortium helps neurology residents, fellows, and post-doctoral graduates grow in their profession by providing a forum to:
- Discuss key issues
- Share ideas
- Work with other residents and fellows
- Gain the opportunity to develop mentor relationships
- Learn more about AAN programs developed especially for residents and fellows
The Consortium is open to all residents, fellows, and post-doctoral graduates who are AAN members and meets at least once a year.
