Biographical Sketch

Priya Nidamanuri is a PGY-3 neurology resident with interests in vascular neurology, neuro-oncology, medical education/mentorship, and DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) efforts. She decided to complete her neurology training at UPMC because of the wide breadth and depth of pathology seen by residents on a daily basis and the close bonds shared among the residents and faculty here. Her favorite rotations in residency thus far have been the inpatient stroke service and outpatient EEG elective. Her interests outside of work include singing, painting, swimming, and spending time with her family and friends. She plans to pursue a fellowship and eventually an academic career in vascular neurology. 

Education & Training

• MD, Northeast Ohio Medical University
