Chadrick Lane, M.D.
Assistant Professor

Dr. Chadrick Lane practices neuropsychiatry, a subspecialty of medicine focused on understanding brain-behavior relationships to improve the diagnosis and treatment of people living with complex brain disorders.  He is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Associate Psychiatry Clerkship Director for UT Southwestern Medical School, and the inaugural Clinical Neuroscience Scholar within the Peter O’Donnell Jr. Brain Institute.  He completed his adult psychiatry residency and geriatric psychiatry fellowship training at Yale School of Medicine, followed by fellowship training in behavioral neurology & neuropsychiatry at Boston University/VA Boston Healthcare System.  Dr. Lane’s clinical and research interests focus on the care of people living with epilepsy.  He is a member of the UT Southwestern Epilepsy Team, through which he provides comprehensive neuropsychiatric assessments to patients who are being considered for epilepsy surgery. 

In addition to improving access to mental health care for patients with epilepsy and advancing our understanding of the neural correlates of emotion, cognition, and behavior, Dr. Lane is committed to clinical neuroscience education.  As associate director for the medical student psychiatry clerkship, Dr. Lane assists in organizing and implementing the highly regarded six-week rotation, which is often students’ very first introduction to the field of psychiatry.  He supervises resident physicians in the neuropsychiatry clinic elective, and mentors students, residents, and fellows who are interested in learning about neuropsychiatric training.   Dr. Lane is a member of the American Neuropsychiatric Association (ANPA), through which works to expand educational opportunities for trainees and recruit the next generation of neuropsychiatrists.
