Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Fellowship

Our aim is to provide robust training to physicians who would like a career caring for pediatric and young adult patients with CNS tumors and patients with predisposition syndromes such as neurofibromatosis types 1 and 2.

We very much aim to tailor the education provided to the needs of the trainee to be a successful independent pediatric neuro-oncologist. In addition to time on our inpatient neuro-oncology clinical service and treating a primary cohort of neuro-oncology patients followed in the outpatient clinic, we provide time for a research project with the goal of publication. Again, our intention is to not only strengthen the fellow’s clinical skill set but help form a foundation for building a career in the field.
