The Center for Neuropsychological Services (CNS) at Kaiser Permanente in Roseville, California has one full-time postdoctoral residency position available in clinical neuropsychology. This is a two-year position and will begin the day after Labor Day in September 2012. We provide training in outpatient neuropsychological assessment using a comprehensive battery for a varied patient population (adult and pediatric). Referral questions may include cognitive status subsequent to head injury, stroke, cancer treatment, genetic conditions, and other CNS insults or degenerative diseases (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease). In addition, residents have a unique opportunity to participate in the Functional Neuroscience Movement Disorder Program which performs surgical interventions for patients with Parkinson’s disease. Residents perform pre-surgical evaluations, attend bimonthly neuroscience team meetings, and may observe neurosurgery if desired. Residents may also have the opportunity to participate in our concussion sports program if they are interested. We do baseline and post injury testing for athletes who are Kaiser members. Training also includes regular didactics with our inpatient rehabilitation unit in Vallejo and with the University of California Davis Medical Center in Sacramento. This is primarily a clinical position. The current stipend is $40,000 plus medical. Completion of an APA-accredited training program and internship is required.
To apply please send your curriculum vita, three letters of recommendations, and two reports to Dr. Kim at the address listed below. You will also need to fill out a Kaiser application and more specific information regarding the application process is available at the following website:
