Message from the Director
of the Neurology Residency Program
Dear Applicant,
Thank you very much for your interest in our Baylor College of Medicine Department of Neurology Residency Program. We believe that we have one of the finest programs in the country and can provide an outstanding neurologic education.
We have switched from a printed Program Brochure to the online version that you are presently viewing, which we can continuously update. Please feel free to visit the rest of our web site for up-to-date information regarding our Program and our Faculty, some of our Departmental Clinics and Centers, some areas of research in the Department, and our Case of the Month, which is an actual patient seen by our residents. They present all laboratory findings, imaging data, and then a synopsis of the disorder.
We are now considering applications for a start date of July 1, 2009. All appointments are made through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS®) and the NRMP's Main Residency Match. For information about the Main Residency Match, go to http://www.nrmp.org/res_match/index.html. For information about ERAS, call 202-828-0413 or see the ERAS Web site (http://www.aamc.org/audienceeras.htm).
As you know, Neurology Board Certification requirements include completing one year of training as a medicine or transitional resident before entering our Neurology program. If you wish to do this first post-graduate year (PGY-1) at Baylor College of Medicine, please apply directly and separately to our Department of Internal Medicine Program's Preliminary Year. You can contact them at 713-790-3217. Application to the Preliminary Medicine year is processed through the NRMP, whose web address is http://www.nrmp.org.
