Gil D. Rabinovici, M.D.
Edward Fein and Pearl Landrith Distinguished Professorship in Memory and Aging
Department of Neurology
University of California, San Francisco
Dr. Gil Rabinovici holds the Edward Fein and Pearl Landrith Distinguished Professorship in Memory & Aging in the UCSF Department of Neurology. He received his BS degree from Stanford University and MD from Northwestern University Medical School. He completed neurology residency (and chief residency) at UCSF and a behavioral neurology fellowship at the UCSF Memory and Aging Center (MAC), where he cares for patients with cognitive disorders.
In research, Dr. Rabinovici investigates how to use advanced brain imaging techniques to improve the accuracy of dementia diagnoses and to better understand the biology of neurodegenerative diseases, with the overarching goal of accelerating drug development. He serves as director of the UCSF Alzheimer's Disease Research Center and as study chair for two large multicenter studies examining how PET amyloid scanning (a brain imaging technique) can improve the diagnosis and treatment of cognitive disorders causing memory changes. He is also a principal investigator on several national projects to learn more about Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, including the Alzheimer's Network for Treatment and Diagnostics (ALZ-NET) and the Longitudinal Early-Onset Alzheimer's Disease Study (LEADS). He has authored more than 280 peer-reviewed articles and is in the top 1% of most cited neuroscience scholars.
Honors for his contributions include awards from the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Human Amyloid Imaging Conference, American Academy of Neurology and Alzheimer's Association. His work is supported by the National Institutes of Health, Alzheimer's Association, American College of Radiology, Rainwater Charitable Foundation and industry partners.
