I'm thinkin that I def want to do something in neuroscience for my specialty. I am particularly interested in things like psychological/behavioral anomalies that result from brain lesions, and neurophsiology behind emotion, perception, experience, etc etc. I am thinking id like to have the options of both research and clinical practice. After doing some research, I have discovered that most of the people who publish on this stuff are neuropsychologists (not MDs but doctoral level psychologists). I know that there are a number or subspecialties one can complete after the primary fellowship in neurology. I guess my question is, is neuropsychology (perhaps by another name) one such subspecialty to anyone's knowledge? If not, anyone have any suggestions on how else to orient myself toward that type of practice/research?
