Student experience

the class

Individually scheduled clinical elective, directly supervised by Neurology senior residents and attending physicians. Regularly scheduled supervisor-student meetings, which involve some or all of the following: rounding on service patients, observing procedures in the unit or clinic, examination of patients in an ambulatory setting, presenting cases and teaching topics, and discussing patient cases. Independent activities, including reading about patient conditions and preparing for direct patient care, as needed. Other patient care related learning activities as assigned by instructors: these are dependent on the individual student and the patients under the student's care.
