Couldn't find this topic in my direct search, so apologies if this has been asked before, but I'm curious what the research requirements are for an academic neurologist. I am going to be an M4 and have honed in on Neurology and Rads, but am leaning towards Neurology.
I think I would very much enjoy an academic environment, and I think I would enjoy doing some reasearch. What I am curious about is what the actual research "requirements" are for an academic neurologist? Is it stressful to the point where you need to stress out about getting grants or is it more relaxed where you can participate and engage in your department's research, but not have to stress about getting grants?
Basically, I think I would enjoy academics and the combination of clinical care with some research on the side, but I don't think I'd enjoy it if I'd had to stress out about having to constantly get research grants.
Can someone who works in or is familiar with academic neurology provide any insights on this?
Thank you greatly in advance.
