Neuroanesthesiology Fellowship

The Neurosurgical Anesthesia program at UCLA is accepting applications for a flexible, one-year fellowship in neuroanesthesiology to interested graduating anesthesia residents, board-eligible anesthesiologists, and board-certified anesthesiologists.

This program is designed to provide clinical subspecialty training while also affording opportunities for both clinical and laboratory research experience. The Fellowship Program Director is Natalie Moreland, MD.

As integral members of the Neurosurgical Anesthesia team, fellows will train in different hospital settings. Neurosurgical procedures include awake craniotomy, complex spine surgery, functional neurosurgery, and cerebrovascular treatment in the operating room and interventional radiology setting. Clinical training will also include rotations in neurophysiological monitoring, neurosurgical intensive care and neuroimaging. Experience in pediatric neuroanesthesia is offered in conjunction with the Division of Pediatric Anesthesia. The lengths of these rotations can be increased to accommodate specific interests.
