The IUSM and Riley Hospital's DBP fellowship is an interdisciplinary training experience, combining clinical work, research, advocacy, lectureship, and community experiences. We are Indiana's primary pediatric subspecialty center, which provides a rich learning environment. Our division of DBPs, neurodevelopmental specialists, and APRNs is strengthened by collaboration with psychiatry, neurology, psychology, and many others working with children with neurodevelopmental and behavioral disorders.
