Epilepsy Research @UVA

Epilepsy Training Program

While funding from the National Institutes of Health helps us officially support a small group of students, our training opportunities are open to everyone—undergrads, PhD students, and postdocs at UVA. We encourage all to join!

​

Our training grant generally supports PhD students for two years beginning in their 3rd year of graduate work (link). If interested, then please contact Manoj Patel or Mark Beenhakker.

​

Our training program consists of (1) our weekly Epilepsy Research Today course, (2) quarterly workshops, (3) our Data Cooperation, and (4) clinical perspectives.
