Department of Psychological Medicine and the Neurosciences Unit
Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, NHS Trust
and the Institute of Child Health, London, England
Principal Clinical Psychologist, Grade A
Annual Salary Scale: 21,488 - 23,078 English pounds
A pediatric epilepsy surgery programme was established recently at this
hospital by an interdisciplinary team consisting of neurologists,
neuropsychologists, neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons, neurophyiologists,
and neuropsychiatrists. We are now looking for a recently graduated
clinical psychologist or neuropsychologist to work with this team on a
full time basis to provide a largely autonomous clinical
psychology/neuropsychology service. The position also offers an exciting
opportunity to conduct basic research in children with the aim of
correlating neuropsychological function with neuropathology measured by
state-of-the-art neuroimaging techniques. We therefore particularly
welcome applications from individuals with a strong research interest in
this area.
Candidates should have an APA-approved Ph.D. in clinical
psychology/neuropsychology and have completed internships in adult mental
health, learning disabilities, pediatrics, and one other specialization,
such as addiction or work with the elderly, in order to quickly gain a
Certificate of Equivalence to practice in the United Kingdom. At least
one year of experience working in a pediatric facility would be
advantageous.
