Funding: Salaried position; amount via the programme director.
Exposure: Large volume of posterolateral skull base/acoustic tumors and open cerebrovascular cases; about 200 operative skull base cases per year; anatomical dissection laboratory.

Obtain written clarification from the programme before relying on either route.
