Getting texts and calls from medical student mentees that they have matched into #neurosurgery is one of the most amazing feelings ever. For those who didn’t this time around, there’s always a way and a path. Keep your head up.

[Pascal Jabbour MD, FAANS, FACS, FAHA @PascalJabbourMD]

We have been helping IMGs match in Neurosurgery for the last 16 years in our post doc program @TJUHNeurosurg with a hit rate of 100%!
This recent publication by our superstar post doc @Joannaroy99 shows that :
1-IMGs that match into neurosurgery demonstrate higher publication counts and greater research effort compared to U.S medical graduates
2-The proportion of high-effort publications relative to total publication output did not differ among both groups
