The Neuropsychology Center at BSHRI includes 2 neuropsychologists and 6 full-time psychometrists, as well as an active training program with postdoctoral fellows and predoctoral practicum students. The Neuropsychology Center team provides clinical evaluation and consultation services and supports BSHRIs robust industry- and grant-funded research programs and outreach efforts. Our team of dementia experts at BSHRI includes neurologists, nurse practitioners, social workers, scientists, and researchers. This is an excellent opportunity for a provider who enjoys working in a collaborative, state-of-the-art environment to provide patient-centered care.

The Neuropsychologist is also engaged in the education and training of psychology graduate students, psychometrists, and other staff across departments. Opportunities exist for research involvement and scholarly productivity, based upon experience and interest.
