In our world-class hospitals and research facilities, you will be exposed to a wide range of pathologies. Our diverse curriculum includes clinical exposure, a comprehensive didactic program, research mentoring and extensive teaching opportunities. Our mission is to promote the graduation and success of professional, well-rounded and knowledgeable physicians who will excel in the practice of Neurology.
The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center has a large staff of neurologists, representing the full range of neurological subspecialties. In additional to clinical exposure our educational curriculum is robust for preparing our residents for a career in neurology: 1 hour of daily protected time for morning didactics Monday through Friday grand rounds on Tuesdays at that time.
Full course of introductory lectures on neurologic emergencies at the beginning of each academic year. Introductory neuroanatomy early in the year. All major neurologic subspecialties annually have dedicated block time for full formal lecture coverage of the subspecialty. On each subspecialty block of didactics, Wednesdays are dedicated for morning report sessions, case conferences, chairman rounds, or algorithm case sessions with the program director.
Weekly there is a didactic dedicated for board review alternating with a didactic dedicated to neurodiagnostic case learning neuroimaging, EMG, EEG, pathology. There also are 3 dedicated weeks of contiguous didactics dedicated to board review on an annual basis and two additional annual board review courses provided internally by our program faculty. The program also helps fund adjunctive educational opportunities outside of the program.
The chair is organizing high level subspecialty symposiums for each of the major subspecialties in neurology at our university with outside faculty that are thought leaders in their respective fields invited to participate. Additional measures to balance service and education: Our residents rotate through a night float system to cover the call needs of the program.
Our residents do not take call in pediatric neurology with those 3 months of the curriculum dedicated to more of a formative learning experience. Significant faculty and senior resident support is provided at the beginning of the PGY2 year to successfully transition residents. This includes a curriculum that starts with a dedicated section on neurologic emergencies and delaying PGY2 exposure to night float until late in the year, allowing for a smooth and comfortable transition into neurology residency.
A note about intern year: Our PGY1 interns match categorically at the Ohio State University and receive training through an outstanding internal medicine program.
Additionally, we maintain connection with our interns by having them rotate in our outpatient neurology clinic during one month of their internship, as well as having them gain exposure to the neurocritical care unit.
This helps them to gain comfort in evaluating higher level acuity patients in neurology. Our interns also will be coming to our quarterly wellness retreats to have contact with the neurology program prior to starting their PGY2 year. Conclusion: Our goal is to create the best educational experience possible, train the most capable clinician neurologists, and to allow our residents to have the highest of satisfaction throughout this exciting training time.
Additionally, our aim is to help facilitate our trainees to realize their vision and goals for their career, related to fellowship opportunities, developing academic careers, or transitioning to successful clinical practice.
