Dr.
Lane received his doctoral degree from the University
of Kansas in 2001 in clinical psychology. He has
just joined the clinical psychology faculty at Washington
State University where he intends to focus on geriatric
neuropsychology, geropsychology, and rural health
services. Dr. Lane has been a commissioned officer
in the U.S. Army Medical Department and served on
active duty overseas following 9/11. After completing
a postdoctoral fellowship at Yale University School
of Medicine with a brief stopover in upstate New
York where he is also licensed, he has been at Fort
Lewis, Washington. As a civilian clinical psychologist
in the Department of Behavioral Health of Madigan
Army Medical Center at Fort Lewis, Dr. Lane served
on a disaster response team, provided supervision
of psychology interns, and provided a wide variety
of direct health care services.
When
informed of his selection to receive this award,
Dr. Lane said, "While the financial benefits
of the Hall Award are most certainly substantial,
even more meaningful is the professional validation
it conveys. Receiving this award signifies the approval
of more advanced members of the profession for work
done so far, and the encouragement to continue in
a career that has been thusly founded. There is
arguably no greater source of acknowledgment for
an early career professional than this."
About The National Register
The
National Register is the largest credentialing organization
for psychologists. The independent, non-profit organization
was created in 1974 with the help of the American
Psychological Association and the American Board
of Professional Psychology. Today, the National
Register is the leading source of information on
nationally credentialed psychologists in health
care. Psychologists who are awarded national registrant
status have achieved the highest educational and
professional standards in health care. Early career
psychologists can accumulate the necessary credentials
during their training so that when they apply for
a license to practice, they also are ready to become
registrants of the National Register. It is the
only independent, credentialing body with a national
level standard for verifying education and training
qualifications, licensing, and ethical standards
with more than 12,000 doctoral level psychologists
in its database. The National Register is relied
upon by the health care industry, state and provincial
licensing boards, and consumers. National Register
also provides this valuable information to consumers
as a free referral service to top quality psychologists
at www.findapsychologist.org.
