The need for subspecialty-trained neurologists is growing in parallel with increasing disease burden. However, despite the immense burden of neurological diseases, like headache and neurodegenerative disorders, recruitment into these subspecialties remains insufficient in the United States. In this manuscript, a group of educators from the American Academy of Neurology's A.B. Baker Section on Neurological Education sought to review and discuss the current landscape of neurology fellowships in the United States, the factors driving fellowship recruitment and the educational barriers. Moreover, suggestions to potentially improve recruitment for under-selected fellowships, which can contribute towards an alignment between neurological education and neurological needs, and future educational scenarios are discussed.
随着疾病负担的增加，对受过专业培训的神经科医生的需求也在与日俱增。然而，尽管头痛和神经退行性疾病等神经系统疾病负担巨大，但这些专业在美国的招募仍然不足。在这篇手稿中，美国神经病学学会 A.B. Baker 神经教育分会的一组教育工作者试图回顾和讨论美国神经科住院医师培训的现状、推动住院医师招募的因素以及教育障碍。此外，还讨论了一些建议，以提高选择人数较少的住院医师培训的招募数量，这有助于使神经科教育和神经科需求保持一致，并探讨未来的教育方案。
