\"\"The Vascular Neurology Fellowship has existed at Boston Medical Center for more than 20 years. It is ACGME accredited for one year, and interested fellows are welcome to stay for a second research year. Up to two fellows are accepted for clinical training each year. Over thirty fellows have graduated from the program since 1996, with seven completing two-year fellowships.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fellows are\u00a0trained on the clinical aspects of stroke diagnosis and management, including the use of ultrasonographic and neuroimaging techniques, along with the principles of medical and surgical management of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Fellows are involved in the acute management, daily assessment, and follow-up of all stroke patients admitted to Boston Medical Center. Involvement in\u00a0ongoing clinical research trials\u00a0is also expected and encouraged. Many additional research opportunities exist through our close relationship with the Framingham Heart Study.<\/span><\/p>\n
