There is one position each year, for one year of clinical training based at Harborview Medical Center, a JCAHO approved Primary Stroke Center caring for approximately 800 ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients each year. In addition to the intensive vascular neurology training offered, there are rotations in neuroradiology, neurosonology and neuro-critical-care. Call is taken with the acute stroke interventional team and there are opportunities to participate in clinical research projects. At the end of one year of training, the trainee will be eligible to sit for the Vascular Neurology subspecialty board certification examination.
