The Child Neurology Global Health Pathway is a unique opportunity for child neurology residents to explore global health interest early in their learning. This program is made possible through the support of the Global Health Program (GHP) and is designed specifically for residents in their second (PGY-4) and third years (PGY-5). Under the guidance of Archana Patel MD, MPH, and with the added support of Maitreyi Mazumdar MD, MPH, this program is designed to prepare trainees for clinical and research careers in child neurology within the context of global health.

Through the Child Neurology Global Health Pathway, residents receive funding to pursue an area of global health research and work in collaboration with local and international partners in resource-constrained settings to gain a deeper understanding of the healthcare needs and challenges in these communities. Pathways residents may travel abroad to pursue research or quality-improvement-focused scholarly projects during dedicated elective blocks with the goal of developing the skills and expertise needed to pursue a global career in child neurology.
