Clinical Neuropsychology Fellowship (Florida) - Residencies and Fellowships - Mayo Clinic College of Medicine & Science

Page Content

Overview

Mayo Clinic's campus in Jacksonville, Florida, offers a two-year full-time postdoctoral program for advanced training in clinical neuropsychology. The Clinical Neuropsychology Fellowship prepares doctoral-level neuropsychologists for board certification through the American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology (ABCN) and for careers in multidisciplinary medical or academic settings.

The training model focuses on medical neuropsychology in young, middle-aged, and older adults. Clinical training focuses on outpatient and cross-cultural neuropsychological evaluations for Spanish-speaking individuals. Training also includes neuropsychological monitoring in neurosurgical settings and rehabilitation-focused interventions.

Training opportunities include neurodegenerative diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, motor neuron diseases, and autoimmune syndromes. Additional training covers rheumatologic syndromes, organ transplantation, epilepsy, neuro-oncology, and other subspecialties. You will complete time in three major clinical rotations during the two-year training cycle:

Classic Primary Neurodegenerative Disease and Clinical Prodromes
Neurosurgical Populations (Epilepsy/Neuro-Oncology/Cerebrovascular)
Complex Medical Neuropsychology/Genetic Conditions

More about the curriculum

Director's welcome

We collaborate with learners to create individually tailored training experiences in clinical practice, research, and teaching. We train by the Mayo Clinic philosophy that "the needs of the patient come first” while also recognizing that the needs of the learner come first.

Accreditation

The Clinical Neuropsychology Fellowship is a member program of the Association of Postdoctoral Programs in Clinical Neuropsychology (APPCN). APPCN does not accredit postdoctoral programs. The organization developed training standards and a code of conduct, followed by affiliated programs.

Program history

The Clinical Neuropsychology Fellowship began in 1995 with one fellow training at a time for a two-year program cycle and recruitment taking place only once every 2 years. Beginning with the 2025-2027 program cycle, this program will recruit every year, moving to a model where there will be a first-year fellow at the same time as a second-year fellow. Former fellows have gone on to secure positions in academic departments, medical centers, private practice, and industry.
