I'm not sure but I think you just have to get a PhD in neurology

If you want to study dreams and such then I do not believe you want to become a neurologist. LaBerge is a psychophysiologist Dream related careers: Social Psychophysiology, Cognitive Psychophysiology, and Cognitive Neuroscience, Sleep Scientist, Neuropsychology, Psychology I'd suggest doing a bit more research for yourself regarding what the difference is.
