🚨 Contract Opportunity – Pediatric Neuropsychologist / Central Rater (UK) 🚨
I’m currently supporting a long-term pediatric gene therapy programme seeking an experienced Pediatric Neuropsychologist / Clinical Psychologist to act as the UK Central Rater across sites in London and Glasgow.
This is a highly specialist consultancy opportunity supporting neurocognitive endpoints within a rare pediatric epilepsy study.
