Dr. Palmer has been a member of the UC San Diego Department of Psychiatry Faculty for over 25 years, and a faculty affiliate of the Stein Institute for Research on Aging for over 15 years. He received his PhD in clinical and cognitive psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and then completed a two-year clinical-research fellowships in neuropsychology at UCLA, and a subsequent postdoctoral research fellowship in geriatric mental health at UC San Diego prior to joining the faculty in 1997.
