Howie Rosen, MD
Professor of Neurology
There is no better way to leave your mark in the world than to advance knowledge and to teach others to help.
Current Work
Howie is the director of Curriculum for GBHI. He also serves as director of the Outreach and Education Core for UCSF’s Alzheimer’s disease research center and director of UCSF’s Behavioral Neurology Training Program.
Vision
Through his work, Howie aims to prepare the next generation of dedicated professionals to carry on with this work until the threat posed by dementia is eradicated throughout the world.
Strategy
Howie’s research involves the use of brain imaging and novel assessments of socioemotional functioning to provide objective and sensitive measurements of brain changes that occur in neurodegenerative illnesses. These efforts are conducted through multicenter projects that enroll patients suffering from these disorders as well as those at risk because of genetics or other factors.
Motivation
Neurodegenerative diseases often go unrecognized or unacknowledged, and when physicians do recognize the presence of a serious brain disorder, the cause is often misdiagnosed. Howie has dedicated his career to rectifying these problems through patient care, research, and education.
