CPS Professor Chairs National Conference

Center for Psychological Studies associate professor Barry Nierenberg, Ph.D., recently chaired the 11th Annual Rehabilitation Psychology Conference in Jacksonville, Fla. 

The joint venture between the American Psychological Association's (APA) Division of Rehabilitation Psychology and the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP) had over 200 attendees. Dr. Nierenberg also presented two papers at the conference.

Dr. Nierenberg was recently elected to membership in the National Academy of Practice (NAP), a nonprofit professional organization composed of elected representatives from 10 different health professions. Founded in 1981, the central purpose of NAP is to advise public policymakers on health-care issues. NAP is the only interdisciplinary group of health-care practitioners dedicated to these issues with only 150 practitioners or scholars elected to each Academy.
