FAU’s four-year, categorical neurology residency program is based at BRRH, the primary site for the program, and DMC. The program has been approved for three positions each year for a total of 12 positions. The inaugural class will be selected in March through the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP®) and will start on July 1.

 

FAU’s neurology residency program is directed by Daniel Kantor, M.D., a leading neurologist and a fellow of the American Academy of Neurology and the American Neurological Association, president emeritus of the Florida Society of Neurology, and chair of the Subcommittee on Concussion, Sports Medicine Advisory Committee of the Florida High School Athletics Association. Kantor is a renowned expert on multiple sclerosis, concussions and migraines.

 

The program will include formal teaching in daily didactic sessions, grand rounds, professor rounds, clinical and basic neuroscience lectures as well as a number of subspecialties conferences. Neurology residents will have the opportunity to individualize their training by selecting a wide range of electives, which include electromyography (EMG)/neuromuscular, epilepsy, headache, memory disorders, neuroimmunology/multiple sclerosis, among others. Neurology residents also will have the opportunity to be involved in basic neuroscience research at the FAU Brain Institute and the BRRH Marcus Neuroscience Institute and to work with clinicians on cutting-edge programs at the FAU Comprehensive Center for Brain Health.
