Abstract

Abstract : Medical education is the understanding of how medical knowledge is taught and practiced and encompasses not just medical students, but resident trainees, colleagues, and the community. While there is a growing emphasis in medicine on "clinician-educators, " neurology training has only slowly developed formal opportunities in medical education. Here we highlight the current opportunities in residency and beyond, and explore options for further medical education infrastructure within neurology.
