Forensic psych advice/gap year opportunities?
Hi all,
I am taking a gap year before applying to a doctorate program with hopes of becoming a forensic psychologist. Some of my interests include rehabilitation of those wrongfully convicted, assessment and intervention for those with extreme mental illness who have been convicted of violent crimes, and equine therapy for inmates. I would most likely want to work in a prison, with the Innocence Project, and possibly do consults for the FBI. I am curious to hear what steps I should take to...

Telehealth work in PM & R
Is anyone doing tele-rehabilitation work either as their primary job or as a moonlighting/side job?
COVID opened the gates I think to people accepting and seeing the value of telemedicine, but I'm wondering if there will be more opportunities.
I know SFN consulting is something more of my colleagues are getting into. Could one do this via telelhealth, with say the help with a nurse or MA on site?

Have been considering Podiatry school for many years, debating - chances?
Long time lurker on SDN. I have been looking into Podiatry for many years, and find myself looking into it all the time. It seems like a great mix between medicine, surgery, and rehabilitation (Podiatrists looks at biomechanics, fabricate orthotics, etc). Work/life balance seems pretty good as well.
Anyways, some rough stats since I am debating this.
Age: Late 20s, will be in the early 30s if I do this.
Family situation: Married, with kids.
Overall GPA: 3.3
SciGPA: 3.0
MCAT: Took...

TIRR Memorial Hermann Job
Hello,
I wanted to get everybody's thoughts and opinions about TIRR Memorial Hermann as a place to work. There are two positions (neuropsychologist and rehabilitation psychologist) that are open, but I wasn't sure how they are in terms of pay, benefits, reputation, atmosphere, etc. It would be great to get all perspectives (good, bad, ugly). Thanks! (Source: Student Doctor Network)
