Just google "(institution name) neurosurgery faculty" for some of the top 10-20 programs and see where some of them came from. After a while, you'll notice trends.

You need a couple of things to leave a place and have an academic career:
- Faculty connections. Can they call someone and get you the fellowship that you need? Do people from that place even do fellowships? - Research. Look at the list of places with SPORE grants, and neurosurgeons with RO1s. Some places have tons of research but its pure basic science and none of the residents participate. - Stability. Programs that have been around and have relative stability of faculty are much better positioned to get you the above. There are two things that make assessing this a lot easier. The RRC knows all the players (heck, most of the true players are on it) and has a significant amount of insider information about programs. Places with 3 residents/yr generally have more "weight" to throw behind getting your career started. Second, the NIH knows a lot more about what good research is than you probably do. Programs with an R25 have convinced them that they know how to train people to do research.
