About Our Fellowship

The Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry Fellowship at the Nantz National Alzheimer Center of Houston Methodist Neurological Institute was accredited in 2020 by the United Council for Neurological Subspecialties. A partnership between the Departments of Neurology and Psychiatry of Houston Methodist Hospital allows for fellows to acquire experience in the diagnosis and management of a variety of disorders including but not limited to:

  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Frontotemporal dementia
  • Lewy-Body dementia
  • Vascular cognitive disorder
  • Cognitive effects of epilepsy
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Synaptic autoantibody disorders

The Program is comprised of clinical training (evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, systems-based practice), exposure to groundbreaking research programs (study design and execution, publications, grant writing), and other scholarly activities (education opportunities). The foundations of these individual experiences is an extensive patient population, excellent clinical and research facilities and the expertise and experience of our Director, Dr. Joseph C. Masdeu, MD, PhD, Co-Director, Dr. David B. Rosenfield and the core faculty dedicated to training our fellows in each area with flexibility to tailor the program to each fellows desired goals and future aspirations within the subspecialty.
