Through providing education and training for the most up-to-date clinical practice of Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Monitoring. AICN® is creating new standards for IONM.
One of the objectives of the AICN® program is to Inculcate in each student the importance and necessity of consumptive research to maintain an up-to-date knowledge of advances in the theory and practice of clinical neurophysiology and the clinician's obligation to conduct research to contribute to that advancement. A part of this goal is the expectation that each participant will develop a research project suitable for publication in a professional journal.
Graduate Level Education and Training
Atlanta Institute of Clinical Neuroscience was incorporated in 2000 and authorized by the state of Georgia to award a professional master’s degree, the first entity ever to award an advanced degree in Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Monitoring, the Master’s in Clinical Neuroscience.
The efficacy of the AICN® formal education and training program has been proven by the clinical accomplishments of the participants, and its success is further demonstrated by a 100% pass rate on the two national board exams in the field of IONM.
