Yes, until after their basic medical degree. After that they both specialise (since neurologists don't normally operate, whereas brain surgeon's do). Neurologist's would usually be the ones looking after those who had been operated on by the brain surgeons. (Surgeon's don't usually do aftercare, or pre-surgery care; that's the neurologist's job).
yes, a brain surgeon is the same thing as a neurosurgeon, it is just another way of saying it, but you don't see too many surgeons saying brain surgeon!
