The Waisman Center is recruiting for a one-year psychology postdoctoral fellowship position in Autism and Developmental Disabilities to begin in summer 2025. The program is designed to provide clinical training within an interdisciplinary outpatient setting for children referred for neurodevelopmental evaluation and intervention. Although autism is a primary focus, the fellowship also includes opportunities to work with children with other developmental disabilities who receive services at the Waisman Center. Fellows will receive robust training in autism-focused assessment through the Autism and Developmental Disabilities Clinic. Fellows may also choose from several specialty rotations, including assessment services within other Waisman Center specialty clinics (Down Syndrome, NICU Follow-up) and clinical intervention services for autistic children and their families. Fellows receive individual supervision from a qualified supervisor.
Fellows will also participate in clinical research activities and serve as an advanced trainee in the Wisconsin Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities and Related Disabilities (WI LEND) program. WI LEND provides interdisciplinary/interprofessional training to prepare leaders to provide person- and family-centered care to individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. WI LEND supports didactic and experiential learning in developmental disabilities, systems of care, disability policy, applied and community-engaged research, and lived experience.
