The AASAN Fellowship program was
created in 2007. As an organization, we are aware that it
is important to help young faculty in South Asia to come to the
United States to further enhance their training and
neurosurgical education and to establish professional contacts
with neurosurgeons in the U.S.
The AASAN Fellowship Program
is currently accepting applications from Junior Faculty who are
in their first 5 years of training. Applications from Residents
are not being accepted at this time.
