Summary

  • I am a board certified academic neurologist. My clinical practice is focused on headache medicine. My research focuses on headache medicine, cognitive aging and dementia. After attending the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, I completed a neurology residency at Einstein, fellowships in clinical neurophysiology (at Einstein) and neuroepidemiology (at Columbia) and have been Einstein faculty ever since. I am currently the Edwin S. Lowe Professor of Neurology, Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health and Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Einstein. I conduct longitudinal epidemiological studies and clinical trials funded by the NIH, the FDA and industry.
