- Neuro-ophthalmology
- Autonomic dysfunction
- Neuromuscular complex care

Teaching There are daily opportunities to attend teaching. These include grand rounds, clinico-pathologic cases, bedside teaching and consultant-led tutorials, often by international experts. One teaching session is protected: a weekly teaching session tied to the curriculum and delivered by consultants. Supervision All trainees will have a named educational supervisor and an electronic portfolio on which to log progress.
