Description
Sponsored by the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) and its Global Strategies Subcommittee, this scholarship supports early-career neurologists and neurology trainees living and practicing outside the United States. Selection emphasizes leadership potential and a strong commitment to academic, clinical, or advocacy advancement in applicants’ home regions.
The program connects Annual Meeting participation with sustained involvement in the global neurology community.
