Pediatric Neuropathology Training

A key component of our educational mission is to provide postgraduate medical education in pediatric neuropathology to trainees in pediatric pathology, neuropathology and pediatric neurology.

Fellows in neuropathology from the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania participate in a three-month rotation during their fellowship. Neuropathology Fellows from other institutions wishing to supplement their training in pediatric neuropathology are also welcome to do elective rotations.

Pediatric neurology Fellows from The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia participate in a two-month elective rotation. Pediatric pathology Fellows from The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia participate in a one-month mandatory rotation, as well as having ongoing clinical responsibilities in neuropathology throughout their fellowship. An active lecture series, syllabus and one-on-one teaching support all of these activities.

We welcome trainees and faculty from other institutions who are interested in obtaining advanced experience in pediatric neuropathology. Please contact us to arrange a visit or rotate through the Division of Neuropathology.
