Introduction

Graduate education is the major mission of the Oregon Health & Science University, and the Neurology Residency Training Program is the first priority of the Department of Neurology. Our fully accredited four year program accepts three residents per year. Our goal is to train clinical neuroscientists: individuals who provide expert patient care and who understand basic and clinical neurosciences.

In addition to emphasizing education, neurology faculty are active in clinical care and clinical and basic research. As a result of this exposure, graduates of the program are prepared for both private clinical practice and academic neurology careers.

Current Residents find that our neurology staff values teaching as an exchange of ideas, and as an activity that promotes interaction and inquiry among faculty and residents. Residents are treated as junior colleagues. Formal and informal interaction between faculty and residents is encouraged.
