Non-ACGME Fellowship in Electromyography and Neuromuscular Disease
We occasionally offer a one year fellowship in electromyography and neuromuscular disease at the Peripheral Neuropathy Center of Cornell. This fellowship provides exposure to variety of EMG techniques including root stimulation, collision studies, repetitive stimulation, and single fiber electromyography. Clinical experience in the diagnosis and management of immune-mediated neuropathies (e.g.: CIDP, monoclonal gammopathy associated polyneuropathy) will be provided. Participation in some of the various ongoing clinically based research projects is encouraged. This fellowship includes participation in the didactic program of the clinical neurophysiology fellowship described above.
Note that this fellowship fulfills eligibility requirements for certification by the American Board of Electrodiagnostic Medicine but NOT the ABPN eligibility requirements for subspecialty certification in clinical neurophysiology.
