Epilepsy Fellowship Program
The goals of the Epilepsy Fellowship at Wayne State University / Detroit Medical Center are to provide high-quality training and education for fellows to become proficient in the inpatient and outpatient evaluation and treatment of patients with seizures and epilepsies of various etiologies and complexities.
The Epilepsy Fellowship Program accepts two fellows per year. At the start of the program, the fellow may choose between the adult and pediatric tracks. By the end of training, the graduating fellow will be able to practice EEG and epilepsy management independently in academic or community settings.
A two‑year combined Epilepsy and Clinical Neurophysiology fellowship is also available. Both programs are ACGME‑accredited. Applicants to the combined pathway must submit a separate Clinical Neurophysiology application during the subsequent application cycle.
The program is participating in the 2026 Match through ERAS and NRMP.
