The mission of Neurology: Education is to publish original research articles, reviews, and editorials on evidence-based teaching methods and curriculum innovations, and provide the academic community with a forum to exchange ideas that enhance teaching and training in neurology and neuroscience. José G. Merino, MD, MPhil, FAHA, FAAN, editor-in-chief of the flagship journal Neurology ® , said of the new publication, “There is a need for a rigorous journal that publishes robust research on neurologic and medical education. This journal fills that gap. Through it, the AAN serves the neurologic academic community. It will focus on research that will help better educate the future generations of neurologists.”
The newly appointed editor for Neurology: Education is Roy E. Strowd III, MD, MEd, MS, FAAN, currently the section editor for the Resident & Fellow Section of Neurology, where he has managed the education portfolio for the journal. “Neurology has a strong tradition of phenomenal teachers and a commitment to great education,” said Strowd. “Now as much as ever, our field needs outlets to develop, disseminate, and promote evidence-based teaching practices that help us train a competent, fulfilled, and inquisitive current and future neurology workforce. Neurology: Education is an extremely exciting step in this direction. The journal will publish original education research articles, reviews, and editorials on evidence-based teaching methods and curriculum innovations. I hope that this journal can help provide a forum for the academic community to exchange ideas, discuss new innovations, and highlight advances that will enhance neurologic and neuroscience teaching and training. The future of our field is bright for authors, readers, educators, trainees, and our patients.” Strowd is a board-certified neurologist, fellowship trained neuro-oncologist, and educator at Wake Forest School of Medicine. He is assistant dean for Undergraduate Medical Education and director of the Health Professions Education Institute at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist. Strowd completed his MD and MS degrees at Wake Forest and Master of Education in the Health Professions at Johns Hopkins School of Education. He is an accomplished education researcher. He has received grant funding specific to education research from Alpha Omega Alpha, the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, and the American Academy of Neurology. Of his over 100 peer-reviewed research articles, more than 30 are specific to medical education including publications in Teaching and Learning in Medicine, Medical Teacher, MedEd PORTAL, Clinical Teacher, BMC Medical Education, Neurology, and other influential journals. He is former associate editor for Medical Education Online. His many teaching awards and recognitions include the SGEA Innovation in Education Award in 2019 and the inaugural AAMC M. Brownell Anderson Award in 2020. While designed for clinical educators, the journal will be free to readers worldwide. Neurology: Education will be a continuous online-only journal with issues compiled two to four times per year.
