International Funding Opportunities

Two one-year funded surgical neuro-oncology fellowships are available to North American and international trained neurosurgeons, from WHO accredited institutions.

The fellow will have combined exposure to four neurosurgical staff at the Toronto Western Hospital, who have overlapping but also distinct clinical and research interests.

• Dr. Bernstein: Awake craniotomy; intra-axial tumours; outpatient surgery; Gamma Knife radiosurgery; bioethics;
• Dr. Gentili: Skull base tumours; pituitary tumours; intra-axial tumours; endoscopic surgery; Gamma Knife radiosurgery;
• Dr. Guha: Peripheral nerve tumours; intra-axial tumours; vestibular schwannomas, molecular neurooncology
• Dr. Zadeh: Endoscopic approaches to skull base tumours; intra-axial tumours; molecular neurooncology

To apply to the July 1st slot for the following year, the decision for which is made around late October of the current year, please send by e-mail:

Final acceptance will require a contractual agreement between yourself and the Department of Surgery Fellowship Program at University of Toronto.
