Dr. Dadar’s work focuses on the detection and understanding of age-related brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). By combining brain imaging and artificial intelligence, she develops tools to facilitate the early diagnosis of these diseases.
Since joining the Douglas Research Centre, she has published numerous articles and secured several grants to support her research.
Congratulations Dr. Dadar!
