Our division offers a wide range of adult outpatient neuropsychological assessment services. Our highly trained staff is skilled in assessing persons referred for a variety of conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy body, frontotemporal lobe dementia, mild cognitive impairment, brain tumors, epilepsy, stroke, traumatic brain injury, pre/post-surgical evaluation and a host of other neurological conditions.

We offer outpatient neuropsychological assessment support to neurologists, neurosurgeons and other physicians within the University of Alabama at Birmingham Medical Center, as well as to referring physicians in the surrounding community and nationwide. The division also provides comprehensive pre- and post-operative neuropsychological assessments for the UAB Epilepsy Center's surgery program and the UAB Movement Disorder’s deep brain stimulation surgery program.

We offer a two-year postdoctoral fellowship for advanced training in clinical neuropsychology, which provides supervised clinical activities, neuropsychological research and didactic experiences. For clinical psychology interns and medical psychology graduate students, we offer a minor training rotation or assistantship/practicum in geriatric and adult neuropsychology.

Research

Our division participates in ongoing NIH-funded research in competency loss in mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease and traumatic brain injury. Research is also conducted in the areas of brain cancer, Parkinson's disease and epilepsy.
