Professor David Sharp is a neurologist and Associate Director of the UK Dementia Research Institute, where he leads the Care Research and Technology Centre. He is Deputy Head (Clinical) of the Centre for Restorative Neuroscience at Imperial and Scientific Director of the Imperial College Clinical Imaging Facility. His research programme aims to improve clinical outcomes after dementia and traumatic brain injury (TBI), focusing on common cognitive impairments in domains such as memory and attention. He uses cognitive neuroscience and advanced neuroimaging to investigate the effect of brain injury on brain network function and the effects of inflammation and neurodegeneration. His has explored how new treatments of cognitive impairment can be personalised and his current work focuses on harnessing neurotechnology development to improve the lives of those living with dementia and the effects of brain injury.
