Postgraduate Education: Residency Training Program 

We have 5 residents attending residency programs. Our program includes 5 years of specialist training. During this training, residents attend 3 months psychiatric rotation, 3 months pediatric neurology, 1 month internal medicine rotation, 1 month cardiology rotation, 1 month physical therapy and rehabilitation rotation, and 1 month radiology rotation. During their training, neurology assistants attend service visits, outpatient clinics, and minor outpatient clinics, and learn about the practices in these polyclinics (such as neuropicological tests, botulinum toxin injection applications and nerve blockages in headaches). They also participate in 3 months EMG and 3 months EEG rotations during their education. In addition, seminar programs and other academic studies are programmed by the responsible academic staff.
