The University of Cincinnati Department of Neurosurgery and the Mayfield Clinic are currently seeking candidates for a one-year Surgical Neuro-Oncology Fellowship to begin in July 2009. The fellowship is part of the University of Cincinnati Brain Tumor Center.

At least one day per week is devoted to clinical research projects.
Our internationally-recognized program includes a well-respected neuro-oncology team, active radiosurgery unit for treatment of tumors with special focus on frameless radiosurgery, access to multiple clinical trials covering the range of brain tumors, intraoperative MRI, special emphasis on surgical implants for brain tumor therapy including I-125 seeds, chemotherapy wafers, use of combination therapy, and a 20-bed Neurosurgery ICU with dedicated critical care team.
