Clinical Fellowships

Clinical Neurophysiology- EEG Track
The mission of the UCDH Clinical Neurophysiology program is to produce clinical neurophysiologists that are expert in clinical assessment, electrophysiologic testing, and management of neurologic conditions in a diverse patient population

Clinical Neurophysiology- EMG Track
The mission of the UCDH Clinical Neurophysiology program is to produce clinical neurophysiologists that are expert in clinical assessment, electrophysiologic testing, and management of neurologic conditions in a diverse patient population. We accomplish that, first by providing a very robust schedule of teaching conferences, and second by maximizing the time that our fellows spend in the EMG laboratory and minimizing time in clinics and any on call responsibilities

The secondary goal is to enable fellows to attain proficiency as a Movement Disorders specialist in clinical or basic science research

Vascular Neurology
The goal of the training program is to recruit highly motivated, engaged, and qualified candidates interested in pursuing careers in clinical medicine, research scholarship, or health science education.  The program engages fellows in comprehensive neurovascular training to develop expertise in the diagnosis and management of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Fellows will be mentored and strongly encouraged to participate in basic and/or clinical science research, quality improvement, and medical education scholarship

Neurodegenerative & Behavioral Neurology
Fellows graduate with a diverse background in the full spectrum of cognitive aging (normal, mild cognitive impairment, dementia) and with experience evaluating complex neurobehavioral patients

UC Davis Health Neurocritical Care
Fellows gain comprehensive competence in the care of both the critically ill and neurocritically injured patients, as well as a variety of medical and surgical issues that a neurointensivist can be expected to confront and manage

Clinical Neuropsychology
