Fellowship reports

The objective of the “Clinical Fellowship Programme” is to provide a well-defined clinical observational experience in a department with recognised expertise in a specific field. With this programme, neurologists that are still in the process of training, or recently qualified and setting up a new service/practice can learn from observing the usual practice in that department, including any or all of clinical practice, service structures or specific techniques conducted in the Hosting Department for a duration of 6 weeks.

It was a great honor for me to be awarded with the European Academy of Neurology Research Experience Fellowship. During my Fellowship I was for six months (January 2019 to June 2019) at the Department of Neurology, St. Josef-Hospital, Ruhr University of Bochum, Bochum, Germany to perform the project “Transorbital Sonography in patients with Optic Neuritis”.

The purpose is to support training and experience for European Neurologists in any area of basic or clinical or applied research in neuroscience. The research work must be carried out at a European academic neurological department outside the country of residence. All applications should demonstrate experience/training of clear value to the home department/individual beyond that available in their own countries/institutions.   

I am really grateful to the European Academy of Neurology for having granted my training research fellowship at the Department of Clinical Neurosciences of the University of Cambridge. During the final year of my residency in Neurology at the Sapienza University of Rome, I had the great honour to join the research group of Professor Mariagrazia Spillantini, who discovered - in 1997 - the presence of alpha-synuclein in Lewy bodies, the pathological hallmarks of Parkinson’s Disease.

Supervisor: Prof. László Csiba First I would like to start thanking EAN for having provided me with this wonderful opportunity to participate in the Clinical Fellowship Programme, 2018. Thanks to the award I was able to spend six valuable weeks in the Department of Neurology, University of Debrecen, Hungary. The experience I have gained under the precious guidance of my mentor, Professor Csiba László, in the field of cerebrovascular diseases, have led me to one of the most memorable and fruitful experiences in my professional career.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the European Academy of Neurology for having granted me a training research fellowship at the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences at University of Oxford.
