Hi all,
I am a current 4th year neurology resident in a clinically strong neurology program. I have good research experience. I am looking for a vascular neurology fellowship starting from 07/2013. If you are recruiting a fellow or have information about any open position please send me a message and I can forward you my CV. Thanks!

Why aren't you contacting programs. I bet PDs are not that desperate to look for fellows on the Internet.

If you're a PGY4 just looking at stroke fellowship programs now, then you must have either decided late, chosen not to go through the match, or tried and failed to match. Most programs are going to be filled through the match for this coming year, so you're at a disadvantage. I'm sure there are lists out there of programs that didn't fill. Perhaps you should start contacting those programs?

I don't think vascular neurology has a match. I agree with above posters though, you need to email programs directly if you're serious.

Huh. I just always assumed it did, since it is ACGME. A quick google search was not helpful, so you must be right.

Thanks for the suggestion!

In my case, it is a late decision. There was no match for vascular neurology fellowship this year or even earlier. Only two neurology fellowships are going through match: neurocritical care and movement disorder (they decided to do match only this year).
Thanks for your suggestion too.

The AAN website has a listing of Vascular programs. And make sure your PD/chief starts calling some people.

The AAN website is a little outdated and is hard to go through. It does not say whether the programs are accredited.

I used the ACGME website for my fellowship search, look for the vascular neurology from drop down bar.

If given a choice at this point in time, I would opt for ACGME accredited Vascular neurology programs at this point in time, as you can get boarded, something that will be increasingly necessary for obtaining hospital privileges and the best positions available.

Sometimes people change their minds, get jobs, etc, and there are probably unfilled positions out there, so it is definitely not too late, particularly if you are not picky about location.

Good luck!
