| Brief Program Description | The Neuropsychology & Learning Service training program at the NYU Child Study Center, part of Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone, is developed using the Houston Conference guidelines and focuses specifically on assessment and identification of interventions and accommodations for children, adolescents and young adults with neurodevelopmental issues, including learning disabilities, ADHD, and Autism Spectrum Disorder. It also allows for exposure to children and adolescents with a history of epilepsy, acquired brain injury, neonatal complications such as prematurity and/or low birth weight, and other medically-related conditions. Fellowship and externship training focuses on a developmental model of assessment, with experiences including clinical work, didactics, and research. Upon completion of the fellowship, trainees will have gained the necessary clinical and research skills for independent practice in pediatric neuropsychology, as well as the knowledge base to pursue board certification in clinical neuropsychology from the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP-CN). |
