He is a member of the Center for Advanced Psychoanalytic Studies. He is a Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. He has supervised and taught clinical courses, primarily continuous case conferences, to students in both the adult and child training programs at NYPSI since 1993 and the class on special topics in child and adolescent psychoanalysis, covering issues such as adoption, divorce, race, sexuality, abuse, etc.

While at Yale College, he co-authored “The Assessment of Qualitative and Structural Dimensions of Object Relations” (the Object Relations Inventory) with the late Sidney Blatt. It has become a standard tool in psychoanalytic research. After completing his medical education at New York University School of Medicine, adult and child psychiatry at Jacobi Medical Center-Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and adult and child analytic training at NYPSI, Dr. Wein devoted himself to clinical practice and teaching. He participated for twenty years in a multidisciplinary study group on learning disabilities and has consulted at a social agency and two schools. In his private practice he is especially interested in children and adults with learning, developmental, and other neurodivergent issues.

In 2008, NYPSI presented him with the Charles Brenner Award for Outstanding Contributions to Psychoanalytic Education.
