Didactic learning is offered primarily through weekly residency lectures and labs. A comprehensive curriculum covering all aspects of treatment of neurologic patients will be provided. Guided research activity is threaded throughout the program with the residents choosing a project based on their interests and available resources.

The program's comprehensive curriculum is developed from and addresses the most recent version of the Description of Residency Practice (DRP). All curriculum components complement each other to enhance the participant's learning. The organization of the program's curriculum ensures congruency between didactic and clinical components. The curriculum provides a structure for the designation of types, lengths and sequencing of learning experiences that ensures the achievement of the program's outcomes.
