Available Fellowship Positions
University of California, Los Angeles Los Angeles, California
The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) multiple sclerosis (MS) program offers fellowships based on the Westwood campus. That said, if there is a request, arrangements may be possible for a half day clinic at Santa Monica UCLA (private practice), Olive View (county), or the West LA VA (veteran's administration). UCLA is also home to the Marilyn Hilton Achievement Center on the UCLA Westwood campus, which is focused on rehabilitation and support programs. The goal is to train neurologists to be experts in MS patient care. A priority will be given to those who aim to stay in an academic setting after completion of the fellowship. This would include career goals of being an MS patient care expert at an academic institution, a clinical researcher in MS, or a basic researcher in MS who also sees MS patients. Those with combined MD/PhD or Master's degrees are welcome, but not required.
