He completed a residency in neurology at Harvard Medical School's Longwood Neurology Program, and research fellowships at [[Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center]] and [[Boston Children's Hospital]]. Green is board-certified in neurology and medical genetics. He was previously on the faculty at [[Emory University School of Medicine]] and the [[Boston University School of Medicine]].<ref>{{Cite web | url=http://www.bu.edu/news/2000/08/16/alzheimer-investigator-joins-boston-university-school-of-medicine/ | title=PR Social | access-date=2016-01-18 | archive-date=2016-08-19 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160819223447/http://www.bu.edu/news/2000/08/16/alzheimer-investigator-joins-boston-university-school-of-medicine/ | url-status=live }}</ref>
