Konstantinos Chiotis, MD, PhD

Postdoc Scholar - Employee
M_Neuro-Memory and Aging

Konstantinos is an attending neurologist, specializing in the care of patients with neurodegenerative disorders. He obtained his medical degree from the University of Patras in Greece (2011) and completed a Ph.D. at Karolinska Institutet (2013-2017), focusing on the development of multimodal neuroimaging biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease at the Agneta Nordberg lab.

Currently serving as a postdoctoral fellow at the UCSF Memory and Aging Center in the RabLab, Konstantinos works on multimodal neuroimaging under the mentorship of Professor Gil Rabinovici and Dr. Renaud La Joie.

His primary interest lies in developing novel biomarkers to enhance the clinical management of patients with cognitive impairment and to identify new treatment targets. He aims to synthesize translational findings to unravel the complex and often heterogeneous cascade of events leading to neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment.
