Congratulations to Peter Fecci, MD, PhD (left) and John Sampson, MD, PhD, principal investigators of a newly awarded NINDS Research Education Grant for Residents and Fellows and Fellows. The grant funds one resident per year to conduct research.
The goal of this National Institutes of Health funded program is to help foster physician-scientists, and to begin neurosurgeons on the path to a Career Development (K) Award.
Duke Neurosurgery is one of the few neurosurgery departments in the country with an R25 supporting resident research.
