Clinical Neurophysiology Fellowship

Program Director: Omar Danoun, M.D.
Program Coordinator: Monique Hamilton

The Clinical Neurophysiology Fellowship Program at Henry Ford Hospital is a one-year ACGME accredited training program that provides an extensive training in Clinical Neurophysiology. We also offer two year positions to interested individuals. The second (non-ACGME) year aims for further subspecialization and related clinical or basic research.

We offer five positions every year. On completion of the Clinical Neurophysiology Fellowship Program, the fellows gather far-reaching skills in one or more of the following:

• Electroencephalography (EEG)
• Motor and sensory nerve conduction studies (NCS)
• Diagnostic electromyography (EMG)
• Single-fiber electromyography (SFEMG)
• Video/EEG monitoring
• Critical care monitoring (CCM)
• Magnetoencephalography (MEG)
• Evoked potential (EP) studies
• Sleep studies (PSG and MSLT)
• Electrodiagnostic movement disorder assessment
• Botox injections
• Muscle and nerve biopsies
• Testing of the autonomic functions
