主要研究背景及目的

Stroke research fellowships are post-graduate training opportunities for vascular neurologists or other candidates (MD or PhD) desiring advanced training in the research field of cerebrovascular disease. Career-long research bonds forged during such a fellowship may help to establish the next generation of international research consortia.2 Maintenance of such international collaborations will be helpful for future careers, especially in research fields in which large patient numbers or many contributing centers are needed.

方法

You will need to find an institution or mentor that matches your interests and goals and allows expansion of your knowledge base in the stroke field. Furthermore, much can be learned about a fellowship from fellows who have graduated from it or have worked under a given mentor. Finally, it is important to get a feeling as to whether a mentor or an institution has a mutual interest in you as a fellow.

结论

Overall, in the increasingly competitive job market, successful completion of a fellowship can be the deal maker to be shortlisted for an appointment back home when the background and other factors among applicants for a position are otherwise similar.

主要结果

Regardless of any transitory challenges, the long-term benefits generated by the knowledge, research, personal connections, and professional networks established during your fellowship are of unquantifiable value. Long after their fellowships have been completed, fellows continue to engage in the collaboration and exchange of ideas so essential to enhanced stroke care and innovative stroke research.
