Application Process

Each year The Johns Hopkins Department of Pediatric Neurology selects four individuals to join their residency training program. Applications are accepted through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). All resident positions are categorical, with the first two years of training completed in the Johns Hopkins Department of Pediatrics and the final three in the Department of Neurology. 

Application Process

Applications should be submitted through ERAS to both The Johns Hopkins Pediatric Neurology Categorical Track (NRMP #1242185C0) and The Johns Hopkins Pediatrics track (NRMP #1242320C0) to allow Pediatrics to review your application.

Applicants who wish to send additional materials not required by ERAS should email them in a PDF format to [email protected].

Interviews

All interviews will be held virtually through Thalamus and Zoom and are on a Thursday (typically 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. EST, with scheduled breaks). Interview dates for Pediatric Neurology will be scheduled through Thalamus by the program coordinator, Leanne Ajabor ([email protected]). Interviews with Pediatrics will be scheduled after the Pediatric Neurology interview date is selected. We highly encourage scheduling both interview days for the same week (e.g. Pediatrics on the Friday after our interview day as listed below), although we can accommodate changes.

Interview Dates: 5 dates TBA

Second Look Dates: TBA
