Fellowships

Neurology Fellowship

Our child neurology fellowship program, which is co-sponsored with the adult neurology training program at the Kansas University Medical Center, accepts one fellow per year. We offer an integrated program with the pediatrics residency program so that residents and fellows have the option to complete all five years of training at Children's Mercy Hospital. We currently have six fellows in the combined program. Learn more about the neurology fellowship program.

Other Educational Activities

Faculty from the division are involved in a variety of other educational activities. For example, we collaboratively developed the annual Missouri Valley Child Neurology Colloquium, an annual regional meeting for child neurologists and developmental pediatricians. We also provide didactic lectures to students at area medical and graduate schools.
