VISITING: Open to visitors and SCORE applicants. TYPE OF CLERKSHIP: Selective 2. DESCRIPTION: This clerkship provides an opportunity for students in the clinical years to have an advanced clinical experience in Adult Neurology. The student will be expected to perform at a "subinternship" level on the Stanford Inpatient Consultation, Stroke, and/or ICU service, where students will be often evaluating undifferentiated patients with neurologic symptoms and will have increased independence as a student member of the team. In rare circumstances, we may ask applicants to consider an outpatient clinical or inpatient specialty experience as space allows. In addition to this advanced clinical and professional role, the student will have an opportunity to be a near-peer mentor and educator for the neurology clerkship students if they chose. This elective is often selected by those students interested in pursuing future residency training and career in neurology or the neurosciences. This is a 4-week rotation in which the schedule strictly conforms to Stanford School of Medicine period dates. This clerkship requires completion of the Required Neurology Clerkship at Stanford ( NENS301A) or an equivalent neurology clerkship from an outside institution. Visiting students wishing to apply for a position in this clerkship experience must receive prior approval from Clerkship Director before submitting an application by sending a curriculum vitae and statement of purpose for review. Students should also indicate which period(s) they are available to rotate and any flexibility they may have. Students must adhere to the predefined Stanford School of Medicine period dates without exception. PREREQUISITES: A prior Neurology clerkship and advance approval by the Clerkship Director.
