Summary
On behalf of the Chairs of the Adult Fellowship Match Committee of the Society for Neuro-Oncology, we are excited to announce an educational opportunity for residents applying to a Neuro-Oncology Adult Fellowship Match program. This free live Zoom event will be held Thursday, December 14, 2023, at 7:00pm ET. A recording of this event will also be created and posted on the Neuro-Oncology Academy website.

Potential applicants will hear from a panel of Fellowship Program Directors and Fellows from diverse institutions regarding the expected timeline and general guidelines of the SF Match application process, as well as their experiences and FAQs regarding the process. Participants will also be provided with an opportunity to ask their specific questions from the panel. We hope you can join us! Objectives:
  • To provide practical education for residents applying to a Neuro-Oncology Adult Fellowship program regarding required timelines and expectations.
  • To improve communication with residents by offering an opportunity to ask questions related to the application process to Fellowship Program Directors and Fellows who have gone through the process.
  • To expand the outreach of this educational recording by creating an enduring material to post on the SNO Neuro-Oncology Academy to allow for future access for residents.
