Associate Professor (Research) of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Neurology Research)
BioDr. Beth Mormino completed a PhD in Neuroscience at UC Berkeley in the laboratory of Dr. William Jagust, where she performed some of the initial studies applying Amyloid PET with the tracer PIB to clinically normal older individuals. This initial work provided evidence that the pathophysiological processes of Alzheimer’s disease begin years before clinical symptoms and are associated with subtle changes to brain regions critical for memory. During her postdoctoral fellowship with Drs. Reisa Sperling and Keith Johnson at Massachusetts General Hospital she used multimodal imaging techniques to understand longitudinal cognitive changes among individuals classified as preclinical AD. In 2017, Dr. Mormino joined the faculty at Stanford University in the department of Neurology and Neurological Sciences. Her research program focuses on combining imaging and genetics to predict cognitive trajectories over time, and the integration of novel PET scans to better understand human aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

BioI am a researcher with 10 years of experience in magnetic resonance imaging, which includes project management, data analysis, digital signal and image processing, image reconstruction, and pulse sequence design. I currently manage the day-to-day operations of a small animal MRI facility and work to ensure reliable data are collected for both human and animal imaging. I also work on MRI pulse sequence development, reconstruction, and analysis to better understand the sources and effects of alcohol addiction. I have also worked on clinical stroke imaging in CT and MRI, as well as techniques for high resolution 3D Diffusion-weighted MRI of the brain to better visualize white matter tracts in order to better detect the subtle changes associated with degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. I earned my PhD with a variety of work including cancer metabolism using hyperpolarized 13C, and data analysis of the effects of asthma on the lungs. My interests are research, technology, and healthcare.
