Position Summary
The Department of Neurological Sciences (DONS) at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) is recruiting a full-time adult/geriatric focused neuropsychologist. The position includes a faculty appointment within the Department with rank commensurate with qualifications and experience.

This primarily clinical position will involve neuropsychological evaluations of adult and geriatric patients with memory and movement disorders, multiple sclerosis, stroke, and epilepsy, as well as occasional involvement in interdisciplinary clinics (geriatric assessment clinic and/or liver transplant). Opportunities for clinical program development and sub-specialization exist, depending on the neuropsychologist’s interests and areas of expertise. The neuropsychologist will additionally contribute to the UNMC academic mission through teaching and supervision of neuropsychology trainees and medical residents/fellows, and if desired, through involvement in interdisciplinary research opportunities offered within the Department.

The neuropsychologist will join a collaborative team in the DONS Neuropsychology Division comprised of five adult/geriatric neuropsychologists, two neuropsychology fellows, one practicum student, and six psychometrists.

Qualifications for the position include a doctoral degree from an APA/CPA-accredited program, completion of an APA/CPA-accredited internship program, and completion of a two-year Neuropsychology post-doctoral fellowship. Applicants must be licensed in Nebraska or license-eligible. Preference will be given to candidates who are board-certified or board-eligible in Clinical Neuropsychology through ABPP.

UNMC is the most comprehensive academic medical institution in the area. As Nebraska’s only public academic health sciences center, UNMC is committed to the education of a 21st century health care work force, to finding cures and treatments for devastating diseases, to providing the best care for patients, and to serving our state and its communities through award-winning outreach.
