Neurology training for the child neurologist.
The training of the child neurologist in the fundamentals of neurology is discussed. Although the fundamentals of neurology are clearly necessary for the practice of child neurology, the breadth of the background necessary for the practice of child neurology depend on the interest, enthusiasm, and goals of the resident in question. Some of the issues involved in the design and implementation of the training curriculum will be considered.
