An increasing number of neurological surgeons have sought fellowship training in recent years, and previous analyses have suggested these practitioners are more likely to pursue an academic career. Scholarly productivity is a key component in academic advancement. ⋯ No significant difference existed between the mean h-index scores of neurological surgeons who completed fellowships and those who did not.

Overall, being a senior faculty member corresponds with a greater h-index score, regardless of whether a fellowship was completed.
