Training
Residency & Fellowship Training
The neurosurgery residency follows the Royal College of Neurosurgeons of Thailand's curriculum (revised 2017), assessed through an Entrustable Professional Activity (EPA) and milestone framework, alongside cadaveric surgical workshops and multidisciplinary tumor conferences. Subspecialty fellowships — such as spine surgery — are opened periodically based on department needs.
