UofL Child Neurology offers 3 positions per year in an ACGME accredited categorical program. In addition to following all ACGME requirements fulfilling board eligibility in Child Neurology, residents may opt to complete a "mini-fellowship", i.e. focus much elective time in a specific subspecialty of child neuro (movement disorders, epilepsy, headache, others) to allow the start of a successful academic career in that area with achievement of scholarly activity, networking and other benefits.
