Brief Program Description

GENERAL INFORMATION AND GOALS OF PROGRAM:

The Department of Neuropsychology at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and the Emory University School of Medicine are happy to announce one opening for a postdoctoral fellow for 2024-2026, beginning around September 1, 2024. Our training program is a member of the Association of Postdoctoral Programs in Clinical Neuropsychology (APPCN) and is designed to meet criteria set forth by the Houston Conference Policy Statement. Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta is a tobacco-free, nonprofit, 100% pediatric health care system that operates three hospitals and the Marcus Institute for Autism, as well as 17 satellite locations throughout Atlanta.

The Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Pediatric Neuropsychology Fellowship program builds competency in the neuropsychological assessment and treatment of children (newborn to adult) with a wide variety of neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders. Upon completion of the two-year, full-time program, participants will have gained clinical and research skills required for independent practice and/or academic pursuits in pediatric neuropsychology and to pursue board certification (ABBP-CN). Approximately 75% of the fellow’s time is devoted to clinical activities, and 25% to research and education. Fellows will receive a salary of $54,840 and a comprehensive Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta employee benefits package. Fellows receive 15 days of paid time off, seven major holidays, and four personal floating holidays. Fellows are given two professional days a year to attend conferences (with a stipend if presenting), in addition to a professional day to take the EPPP.
