The Department of Neurology at Indiana University School of Medicine offers fellowship programs in behavioral neurology and neuropsychiatry, clinical neurophysiology, movement disorders, neuroimmunology, neuro-ophthalmology and vascular neurology. Fellows experience an in-depth training environment alongside faculty experts in their specialties. Consistent with national trends, about 80% of IU School of Medicine neurology residency graduates pursue fellowship training and have successfully secured post-residency training at IU and other well-respected institutions throughout the United States. In support of IU School of Medicine’s tripartite mission, faculty neurologists are deeply involved in training the next generation of physicians and investigators in neurological care and research. All neurology fellows train at IU clinical partner sites in Indianapolis.
