Academic responsibilities include overseeing all divisional faculty (currently 8 MDs and 1 NP/PhD, and one Research PhD), advancing their careers by providing professional and personal development opportunities, overseeing high-quality training, supporting research activities, and modeling a culture of inquiry to ensure active engagement in quality improvement, scholarly excellence, and innovation in all missions. This role extends to the experienced Advanced Practice providers (6 NPs) in the division. Administrative responsibilities include creating an environment of excellence and innovation in clinical practice that supports positive patient outcomes. The NDBP closely collaborates with the School of Education to maintain a state-of-the-art multi-tier autism assessment program and also provides leadership and faculty for the Blue Ridge LEND.

The division has an integrated relationship with the pediatric psychology service, currently consisting of 7 PhD psychologists and growing. Community outreach, equity, diversity, and inclusion are priorities: the majority of NDBP patients are publicly insured and we have bilingual capacity at the MD and PhD levels. We partner with a family navigator, licensed clinical social worker, and a team of educational consultants as well as therapy services (PT, OT, SLP, nutrition) amongst a Pediatric Division with 16 sub-specialties, and additionally Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, pediatric surgery, neurosurgery and neurology, and urology services.
