Introduction

Experts in the field of clinical neuropsychology provide expert assessment, diagnosis and treatment of cognitive functions in medical settings. Neuropsychologists focus on neurobehavioral disorders, cognitive processes and brain disorders. Neuropsychological experts are professionals who are especially talented at research in conducting neuropsychological evaluations. They are adept at examining neuropsychological factors such as academic ability, intelligence, memory, attention, and learning capacity. Clinical neuropsychologists have extensive experience in assessing, diagnosing and treating neuropsychological disorders. They would also have information pertaining to best practice and industry standards in relation to neuropsychology.

Clinical neuropsychologists can be of great help to the legal process. These experts are able to often determine how an injury affects functions like reasoning or problem-solving skills. This would have pertinent relevance in determinations of causation. This would further prove useful in cases where injury and neuropsychological disorders have arisen due to negligent or dangerous circumstances. These investigations can often provide crucial evidence in cases. They can also comment on safety measures in place at auto-repair stores and help create safety policy

Experts in this area mostly come from either a medical or psychological background. With many working in either research or gaining medical experience before their time as a clinical neuropsychologist. The specific specialisation and background needed in your epidemiologist expert will be determined by the matter which requires examination.
