Biography

Dr. Whiteside has been a clinical faculty member at the University of Minnesota since January 2020, after working in clinical and academic settings in Iowa, Chicago, and Seattle. Dr. Whiteside is a native Midwesterner, who serves as the Program Director for the Clinical Neuropsychology Residency program. He is actively involved in clinical neuropsychological practice, teaching, research, and community service. His research interests focus primarily on performance validity tests, personality assessment measures in neuropsychological assessment, and long term cognitive and emotional outcomes of COVID-19 infection. He is a member of the editorial board for The Clinical Neuropsychologist and has served as a peer reviewer for several neuropsychological and psychological journals. In addition to his work as Program Director of the postdoctoral fellowship in clinical neuropsychology, Dr. Whiteside has considerable previous experience with training program development, which includes establishing a postdoctoral residency at the University of Iowa, developing a doctoral-level neuropsychology concentration, establishing a doctoral-level on-campus training clinic, and serving as a member of the Board of Directors for a large multidisciplinary medical practice.

He is currently President-Elect and a board member for the Association of Postdoctoral Programs in Clinical Neuropsychology (APPCN). Previously as Chair of the AACN Student Affairs Committee, he developed numerous student-focused programs for AACN including leading the first comprehensive survey of neuropsychology trainees. As part of his role as a Professor, his passion is to facilitate exceptional doctoral and postdoctoral training in neuropsychology while providing high-quality neuropsychological services to adults from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of neurological and psychiatric conditions.

What do you love most about teaching?
My biggest joy in teaching is having the opportunity to mentor and teach clinical neuropsychology to the next generation of professionals. I find the give and take of teaching bright, dedicated students and residents extremely rewarding and enriching to me. I consider myself a lifelong learner, and I try to convey that sentiment in every teaching moment.
What do you love most about Minnesota?
There are so many things to love about Minnesota, it's hard to say just one thing. That being said, the people of Minnesota make it such an amazing place to live and work. Minnesotans are truly kind, caring, and dedicated individuals who make it a pleasure to come to work every day.
Fun fact about you:

In addition to my work as a neuropsychologist, I am an avid jazz and classical musician and play in several bands around town. I also enjoy hiking, biking, amateur astronomy, and travel, particularly to national parks where my wife and I have a “bucket list” goal to see every unit within the National Park Service.
