With specialized expertise in the full range of movement disorders, our team delivers transformative care in more than 7,000 comprehensive treatment plans, integrating a multidisciplinary advanced care model. Care is enhanced in specialized clinics such as the Adams Center for Parkinson and Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders, Memory and Movement Aging Clinic, Wilson Disease Center of Excellence (1 of 7 nationwide), and Yale Center for Restless Legs Syndrome (1 of 10 RLS Foundation Quality Care Centers nationwide), as well as the functional movement disorder program, therapeutic botulinum toxins clinics, and comprehensive advanced therapeutics and deep brain stimulation program. Close collaboration with experts in the fields of neurosurgery, behavioral neurology, neurogenetics, sleep neurology, neuropsychology, psychiatry, autonomics, radiology, neuro-ophthalmology, and pharmacy continue to further compassionate care and cutting-edge research. The division combines basic science, translational, and clinical research, working toward biomarker discovery, identifying markers of disease progression, and evaluating behavioral and pharmacologic interventions in movement disorders with ample collaborative opportunities. Yale is also a premier training institution for two-year movement disorders clinical and research fellows who receive individually tailored instruction.
We seek motivated academics with clinical and scientific expertise in the diagnosis and comprehensive management of patients across the full spectrum of movement disorders. We anticipate faculty applicants to be interested in launching a scientific career in conjunction with clinical care and dedication to the education of the next generation of subspecialty experts.
