Job description

The Department of Neurology at Emory University is seeking a clinical neuropsychologist to join our faculty at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor, commensurate with experience.

The Neuropsychology Program provides comprehensive clinical services to support Emory physicians caring for patients with diverse neurological disorders. Our faculty conduct neuropsychological evaluations to aid in diagnosis, monitor cognitive and behavioral changes over time, and assess risks related to specialized interventions such as epilepsy surgery, deep brain stimulation, or responsive neurostimulation.

In addition to clinical duties, faculty members are engaged in innovative, grant‑funded research supported by the NIH and private foundations. There are ample opportunities to collaborate on ongoing clinical research in Cognitive Neurology, Movement Disorders, and Stroke, as well as treatment trials aimed at improving cognitive outcomes or minimizing neuropsychological side effects.

Teaching and training are also central to our mission. Faculty supervise graduate students from area Clinical Psychology programs, neuropsychology interns in Emory's APA‑accredited Division 40 Internship Program and participate in weekly Neuropsychology Case Conferences.
