Welcome
The Cleveland Clinic Neurology Residency Program is a premier resident-centric training program that provides learners with unparalleled opportunities to develop the skills necessary to excel as clinical neurologists, educators, and researchers. The program provides a supportive and innovative learning environment. The curriculum includes broad exposure to key areas of inpatient and outpatient neurology while maintaining flexibility to individualize clinical and research experiences based on each resident’s goals.
A diverse patient population offers challenging clinical experiences spanning the spectrum of neurological diseases. Our multidisciplinary model of care provides collaborative, patient-centered care emphasizing teamwork, communication, and safety. Residents are highly engaged in efforts to improve quality of patient care through assessment of patient outcomes.
Our categorical training program includes early exposure to neurology with three months of neurology and one month of psychiatry during the first year of internal medicine training. Our inpatient services focus on increasing autonomy and responsibility throughout residency to promote the development of confidence, independence, and leadership skills. In addition to the required mentored continuity clinic where residents longitudinally manage their own patients, we have built-in outpatient subspecialty experiences that provide immersive exposure to key subspecialities starting in PGY-2 year. Residents are provided with 5- of elective time in addition to four weeks of vacation each year, beginning in the PGY-2 year, to explore areas of potential interest. Additional opportunities include dedicated learning time in Neurophysiology and Pathology.
Faculty members from every subspecialty of neurology are committed to providing exceptional clinical education and research mentorship. All faculty and residents have opportunities within the Cleveland Clinic to further develop teaching skills through formal curriculum that includes experiential learning. A research support structure ensures that every resident can contribute to advancing knowledge in the field of neurology.
Outside of clinical training, we also strive to promote a culture of wellness for our residents. We know personal and professional development are imperative for growth during and even long after residency. We have several resources available to promote well-being for our residents through our dedicated wellness curriculum. Though we are a large training program, we aim to cultivate a strong culture of camaraderie and support. Our program takes pride in being responsive and understanding of the need for flexibility for life events.

Research
Our residents have numerous research opportunities across diverse subspecialities. We support residents in their personal interest in research, including quality clinical, translational, and basic science research, as well as quality improvement and medical education research, and we encourage each resident to become involved to the degree they choose. Our resident-staff mentorship program and bi-annual meetings with program leadership ensure each resident has support in selecting enriching research opportunities while balancing clinical growth. To facilitate early exposure, research electives may begin in PGY2 year and continue throughout residency. Each resident completes a PGY3 project in close collaboration with a chosen mentor, with funded statistical support. Several noon seminars are dedicated to fundamentals of research, with structured support and project review given to each trainee. Residents of any year are able to present their work at the Neurologic Institute Fellows & Trainee Research Day, a celebration of work across departments within the institute. Residents have access to travel funds, often used for the annual AAN meeting, as well as a variety of subspecialty conferences. Statistical courses geared toward resident needs and schedules are offered by Cleveland Clinic Quantitative Health Services. Cleveland Clinic Adult Neurology Residency Program also offers a research track for interested residents to develop skills as future clinician scientists. Please see the curriculum tab for more information.
Curriculum
Program Description
The Neurology Residency Program, which is ACGME-accredited, accepts candidates through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). There are twelve categorical positions offered per year in our four-year program, including an integrated prelim internal medicine year at Cleveland Clinic.
Outpatient Clinics
Cleveland Clinic has a weekly continuity clinic program to enhance longitudinal care in our curriculum. Starting in their PGY-2 year, each resident will see patients for a full day in resident continuity clinic, which occurs weekly except for when residents are working on a primary inpatient service. In addition to continuity clinic, residents will have 8 weeks of subspecialty clinic interspersed throughout the year. During these clinic weeks, residents rotate for one week in one of eight core subspecialty centers. The eight clinic weeks are repeated each year providing graduated exposure to subspecialties throughout the entirety of the training program.
Inpatient Experiences
First Year of Residency (PGY-1)
The American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN) requires that the PGY-1 year be spent in an accredited medical training program. Our categorical program seamlessly integrates this introduction to medicine during the PGY-1 year while also fulfilling other ABPN requirements such as the psychiatry rotation. This year also includes three months on stroke, general and consult neurology services to facilitate integration into the neurology department. To learn more about the Internal Medicine Residency program.
First Year of Neurology Residency (PGY-2)
During PGY-2 year, the focus is on direct patient care in the inpatient and outpatient settings. The inpatient general neurology team includes a senior neurology resident (PGY3 or PGY4), junior neurology residents, and medical students. The inpatient stroke team consists of a senior neurology resident (PGY3 or PGY4), junior neurology residents (PGY2 or PGY1), a medicine resident, three advanced practice providers, and medical students. Starting in the second half of PGY-2, residents gain additional experience as an inpatient neurohospitalist and consultant while rotating at one of the Cleveland Clinic’s regional community hospital locations. This rotation provides valuable insight and exposure to different cases and inpatient workflow compared to what residents see at CCF Main campus.
Second Year of Neurology Residency (PGY-3)
During PGY-3 year, 9 weeks are dedicated to managing the three inpatient services, which include general neurology, stroke, and adult neurology consults. Senior residents also spend time as our neurohospitalist, which includes triaging the neurology consult pager. Seniors will also spend a few weeks as the first responder to in-house and ED acute stroke (ASERT rotation). Other rotations include night float, neuro ICU (NICU), epilepsy, and pediatric neurology. The remaining time is split between electives and ambulatory clinics. During PGY-3 year, residents will spend ten weeks in a clinical neurophysiology rotation. A two-month EEG/epilepsy rotation features an in-depth course covering EEG, evoked potentials, and surgical treatment of epilepsy. Residents read EEG records, attend staff reading sessions, and attend epilepsy outpatient clinics. A two-week rotation in the EMG laboratory includes didactic sessions, as well as hands-on experience in the techniques of nerve conduction studies and needle electrode examinations.
Third Year of Neurology Residency (PGY-4)
During PGY-4 year, about 4 weeks are dedicated to managing the general neurology and adult neurology consult services. Interested PGY-4 residents spend additional time rotating on the inpatient stroke service. There is a neuropathology course (4 weeks) where residents work directly with our neuropathologists reviewing pathological specimens. Residents also spend 4 weeks doing regional neurology as a consultant in a community hospital. Similar to PGY-3 year, other rotations include time as the neurohospitalist, ASERT rotation, night float, epilepsy, and pediatric neurology. PGY-4 residents also have 4 weeks of dedicated self-study time for boards interspersed throughout the year. An optional, more intensive 8-week EMG/neuromuscular course provides further hands-on experience with electrodiagnostics. The remaining time is split between electives and ambulatory clinics.
Elective Rotations
Trainees in Neurology can choose from a vast array of elective rotations. Residents with particular research interests may use multiple blocks of elective time to devote to specific projects. For special academic pursuits, residents may spend elective time away from Cleveland Clinic, upon approval from the Program Director. The below electives are the most commonly selected, but other electives, including those outside of CCF, are available. Alternative rotations can be completed with support from the Program Director, the Chief Residents, and the staff supervising the elective.

Conferences/Didactics
The Cleveland Clinic Neurology Residency Program offers an extensive schedule of didactic and continuing medical education lecture series and conferences for trainees and staff.
Neurology Noon Conference
The noon hour is protected time for resident education. These hour-long sessions occur in a variety of formats, as described below. Suggested reading, seminar slides and video recordings from each session are made available to residents to guide self-study and board preparedness.
Staff Lectures
Staff provide interactive seminars based on their area of expertise and cover diagnostics, management, social determinants of health, and case-based approaches of a particular disease state. These seminars are grouped by neurology subspecialty, covering all disciplines of neurology in detail over the course of each academic year. Residents are also provided with recommended literature (topic reviews, landmark papers, textbook selections) to guide their reading and consolidate knowledge.
Evidence Based Medicine (EBM)
Monthly EBM sessions are led by junior residents, guided by the expertise of a staff liaison chosen for each discussion. These sessions are a deep dive into the body of scientific literature behind the clinical questions that are commonly encountered in neurology practice. The focus is finding evidence-based answers for these questions.
Localization Rounds
Residents discuss a challenging or informative case in detail, focusing on clinical aspects that help localize the problem within the nervous system. During these sessions we cover clinically relevant anatomy and its relationship to the neurological exam. PGY2 residents are the main participants in the case discussions, as localization skills are essential to a foundation in clinical neurology.
Senior Case Conference
Each month a PGY3 senior resident presents a particularly challenging and educational case that was encountered on hospital service or in clinic. These are often cases that were seen at multiple institutions before a diagnosis was achieved. The case is followed by an in-depth review of the disease entity which was ultimately uncovered.
Subspecialty Conferences
Weekly discussions are held among various disciplines in Neurology. These occur in a highly collaborative environment where clinical topics and real-life cases are highlighted. These include the following:
- Cerebrovascular Center Patient Management Conference.
- Autoimmune Neurology Conference.
- Epilepsy Patient Management Conference.
- Pediatric Neurology Neuroimaging Conference.
Other Weekly Conferences
- Neurology Grand Rounds.
- Epilepsy Grand Rounds.
- Pediatric Neurology Grand Rounds.
- Tumor Board.
Other Monthly Conferences
- Neurology Journal Club.
- CNS Vasculitis / Vasculopathy Conference.
- Neurology Quality / Patient Safety Conference.
- Monthly Meeting with Program Director, Department Chairman and Residents.
- Resident Wellness Series.
