Job Summary

Michigan Medicine Department of Neurology is seeking a Clinical Instructor for an advance learner position.  Your work plan will focus on the clinical and academic experiences necessary to gain proficiency in the subspecialty of movement disorders neurology. This will consist of a minimum of 2 half-days per week, averaged over the course of four years of training, within the various movement disorders clinics including but not limited to general movement disorders, NPH, ataxia, Wilson's disease, atypical parkinsonian disorders, DBS and botulinum toxin. Unless determined otherwise, each of these experiences will be staffed by an attending neurologist in order to provide appropriate supervision. Additional clinical experiences (such as Speech-Language Pathology, Neuropsychology, Geriatrics, Geriatric Psychiatry, Neurogenetics, Pediatric Movement Disorders and Palliative Care) will be offered and may be included in your 2 half-days, or optionally added by the trainee.

Faculty who provide clinical services are required to obtain and maintain medical privileges at Michigan Medicine in conjunction with faculty appointments. As a clinical faculty member, you must be board certified and maintain active licenses and certifications for your specialties.
