Psychologist - Department of Neurology, Neuropsychology Division (Open Rank/Track Faculty)

The Ohio State University College of Medicine and the Wexner Medical Center seek 1-2 full-time neuropsychologists to join the Department of Neurology. Academic rank and track commensurate with academic record and experience.

Position Overview

At OSUWMC, we are committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. Patients come to the Department of Neurology at OSUWMC for treatments and services they cannot find elsewhere. The department has a diverse cadre of faculty and staff who work together toward the tripartite mission of patient care, education, and research. We seek to hire 1-2 clinical neuropsychologists to join our multidisciplinary department. Applicants with particular interest in neurodegenerative disorders will be particularly competitive, as we anticipate an increase in referrals for dementia evaluations and we are in the process of applying for designation as an Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC).

Department/Division Overview The neuropsychologists selected for this position will join a rapidly growing inter-professional department of over 80 faculty, which includes a team of psychologists within the recently developed Neuropsychology Division. We also have a large number of advanced practice providers and social workers. Our providers work together to diagnose and treat a wide range of rare and common neurological diseases.

Duties and Responsibilities Primary responsibilities will include outpatient neuropsychological evaluation of adults in an integrated clinical setting and engagement in transdisciplinary scholarly activities relating to adults with neurological diseases, with particular emphasis on neurodegenerative disorders. In addition to opportunities to train medical residents, the Neuropsychology Division has recently developed a practicum training program, and we collaborate with our colleagues in the Psychiatry Department in their APPCN-accredited postdoctoral fellowship. Additional clinical opportunities may be available (e.g., cognitive rehabilitation, psychotherapy for patients or caregivers, participation in multidisciplinary clinics), depending on interest.

Requirements

• Applicants must have a doctorate degree in Psychology from an APA- or CPA-accredited clinical program (with an accredited clinical internship)
• Completion of a 2-year post-doctoral fellowship in neuropsychology and eligibility for board certification in clinical neuropsychology through the American Board of Professional Psychology are required
• A track record of interprofessional collaborative research efforts is preferred
