Medical Students' Perceived Interests and Concerns for a Career in Neurosurgery

 
The factors that attract and concern medical students about a career in neurosurgery have never been clearly characterized or delineated in a large nationwide cohort of medical students intending to pursue a career in neurosurgery. The objective of the present study was to characterize the factors that influence medical student interest in neurosurgery and assess the effects of a formal neurosurgery training

Increased Geographical Diversity and Hands-on Skills Training For Medical Student Neurosurgery Training Camp

 
Medical students have little structured exposure to clinical neurological surgery prior to sub-internships. This prompted the development of the Medical Student Neurosurgery Training Camp. In the second year of this course, we aimed to improve the curriculum by increasing the hands-on experience and reduce travel burden with geographical expansion.

Neurosurgery Training Camp for Sub-Internship Preparation

 
Historically, medical student education in neurological surgery has generally limited student involvement to assisting in research projects with minimal formal clinical exposure before starting sub-internships and application for the neurosurgery match. Consequently, students have generally had little opportunity to acquire exposure to clinical neurosurgery and attain minimal proficiency. A medical student training
