Epileptologist (Locum)

Division of Neurology, Department of Medicine

Dalhousie University / Nova Scotia Health

Halifax, Nova Scotia

The Department of Medicine at Dalhousie University and Nova Scotia Health is inviting applications for a 1-2 year locum position as an academic Neurologist / Epileptologist in the Division of Neurology at the QEII Health Sciences Centre, Halifax, Nova Scotia.

There is potential opportunity for this locum to be extended or changed to a continuing appointment in future.

The Division of Neurology is one of 15 divisions within the Department of Medicine and provides tertiary care services to patients throughout the Atlantic Provinces.

The Division supports an active Royal College adult neurology residency training program.

The successful applicant will play an active role in the clinical and academic activities of the Epilepsy Program at the Halifax Infirmary Hospital (part of the QEII Health Sciences Centre).

Our institution has an active comprehensive epilepsy surgery program with a four bed Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU). Clinical duties will include alternating service provision on the EMU, the outpatient Epilepsy Clinic and the EEG laboratory.

All members of the Division are involved in providing scheduled coverage of the inpatient neurology ward and the daytime neurology emergency / consultation service.

Other responsibilities include participation in night and weekend neurology on-call (with resident support) and participation in undergraduate and postgraduate neurology teaching.

Though primarily a clinical position, there are opportunities for self-generated research projects, involvement in clinical trials, and other multidisciplinary research studies.

Candidates must hold FRCPC (or equivalent) certification in Neurology. They will also have completed a recognized post-FRCPC Fellowship program, and have specific training in epilepsy, electroencephalography, and presurgical epilepsy evaluation, including planning and management of invasive EEG, etomidate speech and memory testing, electrocorticography, vagus nerve stimulation and deep brain stimulation.

Candidates must be eligible for appropriate specialty licensure in Nova Scotia.

An attractive remuneration package through an alternative funding plan will apply. Academic appointment ranking will be based on qualifications and experience.

The Department of Medicine is committed to fostering a collegial culture grounded in diversity and inclusiveness. Nova Scotia offers exceptional cultural and recreational opportunities in addition to an outstanding quality of life in all domains.

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.
