The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) offers the Fellow Scholarship to the Annual Meeting to recognize the importance of US and Canadian fellows attending the 2027 AAN Annual Meeting. Rather than funding a research project, the scholarship supports meeting participation through waived registration, airfare, and hotel accommodation. It is intended for fellows who demonstrate a commitment to neurological teaching, education, and/or community service and express an interest in active involvement in the Academy.
Selected fellows also serve as mentors to recipients of the Resident Scholarship to the Annual Meeting. Awards depend on funding received by the AAN; if no funding is received, no scholarships will be awarded. Funding may arrive as late as one week before the meeting.
