Child Neurology Residency

Welcome to Our Program

The University of Kentucky Child Neurology Residency Program is proud of a long tradition of excellence in training child neurologists. We remain true to the principles developed by David B. Clark, MD, when he brought his team from Johns Hopkins to establish our neurology department and the training programs in 1967. These principles are that child and adult neurology are co-equal halves of a single discipline and should be taught through an integrated training program and that our physicians feel a special responsibility to the underserved children in Kentucky’s regional counties. We have continued Dr. Clark's commitment to integrating child and adult neurology to produce the best clinical, research, and academic neurologists. Our residency training program seeks to bring out the best in our trainees and to help them integrate the advances in the basic and clinical neurosciences into clinical skills.
