Neuropsychology Postdoctoral Fellowships

We are seeking curious, interdisciplinary postdoctoral fellows to contribute to ongoing clinical research and pursue related areas of their own focus on the Brain Aging for Cognitive Health (BrANCH) Team. Interest in clinical training is not required but available for qualified neuropsychology fellows. Clinical training opportunities in neuropsychology are aligned with Houston guidelines. The ideal candidate has clinical research experience, demonstrated research productivity, and is interested in specializing in cognitive aging and neurodegenerative diseases. Training in one or more of the following areas is helpful, though not necessary: molecular biology, computational biology, neuroscience, biostatistics, and/or neuropsychology. 

Interested fellows will work collaboratively with our mentorship team from the UCSF Brain Aging Network for Cognitive Health (PIs: Dr. Joel Kramer, Dr. Kaitlin Casaletto, Dr. Emily Paolillo, Dr. Rowan Saloner). Postdoctoral fellows with interest in clinical training typically spend approximately 60-80% of their time engaged in research activities, 20-30% in clinical activities, and the rest of their time in training, supervision, supervising predoctoral trainees, and a wide variety of didactic opportunities.

Applications: The Kramer Lab is hiring. Please visit the link below for more information and instructions on how to apply.
