Position Overview

At OSUWMC, we are committed to providing compassionate, evidence‑based care. Patients come to the Department of Neurology 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 are 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 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 related to adults with neurological diseases, with particular emphasis on neurodegenerative disorders. Opportunities to train medical residents, contribute to a practicum training program, and collaborate with colleagues in the Psychiatry Department’s APPCN‑accredited postdoctoral fellowship are available. Additional clinical opportunities may include cognitive rehabilitation, psychotherapy for patients or caregivers, and participation in multidisciplinary clinics, depending on interest.

Requirements

• Applicants must have a doctorate degree in Psychology from an APA‑ or CPA‑accredited clinical program, including 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.
