Dr. Madeleine Sharp is a neurologist and clinician-scientist specializing in movements disorders at the Montreal Neurological Institute of 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ. She received her MD from 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ, completed her Neurology residency at the University of British Columbia and completed post-doctoral fellowship training at Columbia University. Her research focuses on understanding the cognitive mechanisms underlying cognitive and behavioural symptoms in patients with neurodegenerative disorders, in particular, Parkinson’s disease. The long-term goal is to develop a framework for understanding the many cognitive and behavioural phenotypes of Parkinson’s disease that takes into consideration genetics, pathophysiology, co-morbidities and social factors.Ìý
