Neurology Fellowship

About the Fellowship Opportunities

The University of Pittsburgh, in partnership with the Pittsburgh Institute for Multiple Sclerosis Care and Research and UPMC Medical Education, is pleased to offer fellowships for the 2026-2027 academic year. Applications are accepted through January 31, 2026.

We offer three distinct subspecialty tracks designed to provide balanced training experiences that integrate structured didactics, scholarly activities, and clinical practice. Our program places a special emphasis on career development and subspecialty board preparation, ensuring fellows can thrive professionally while enjoying a high quality of life in Pittsburgh.

Clinical Neuroimmunology and Multiple Sclerosis

This ACGME-accredited neuromuscular fellowship focuses on the complex intersection of neuroimmunology and multiple sclerosis care.

NeuroOncology

This track offers a unique opportunity for a balanced training experience. For interested applicants, an optional second research year is available to further deepen scholarly pursuits.

Women's Neurology

Beginning July 2026, this fellowship provides specialized training at the interface between neurological disorders and women's health across the lifespan. The program can be pursued directly after neurology residency or before or after fellowship training in any neurological subspecialty.

Fellows train alongside top experts in the field, including Women's Neurology Division Chief Dr. Eliza Miller, Chair of Neurology Dr. Page Pennell, and Fellowship Director Dr. Angela O'Neal. Training takes place within an integrated multidisciplinary practice setting at Magee-Womens Hospital, where over 10,000 deliveries occur annually. Fellows will collaborate with multiple subspecialists dedicated to women's neurological health. Career development is a priority, with up to 50% protected time for research offered to qualified candidates pursuing a clinical research track. Elective time is tailored to each fellow's specific clinical and research interests.
