The Department of Neurology at Washington University School of Medicine invites applications and nominations for Program Director, Adult Neurology Residency. 

The Program Director, Adult Neurology Residency reports to the Department Chair and Vice Chair of Education.  The Program Director will have a minimum of 50-70% protected time and is supported by Associate Program Directors and a Program Coordinator.  The Program Director will have responsibility and accountability for the operation of the program, developing program improvements and initiatives based on results of ACGME resident and faculty surveys, fostering a culture of transparency and open communication, and will enhance the residency program to meet evolving ABPN, ACGME, and the school of medicine requirements.  There are 44 resident positions in the Adult Neurology Program, a four year categorical training program (11 residents per year).   

The Department of Neurology is one of the premiere neurology departments in the country.
