Dr. Fanny Elahi, MD, PhD is a neurologist and neurodegenerative disease researcher based in San Francisco, CA. She specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of behavioral, motor, and cognitive problems, with a particular focus on brain degeneration related to vascular disease and abnormalities in the brain's white matter. Dr. Elahi combines molecular techniques with brain imaging to study white matter abnormalities and damaged blood vessels, aiming to gain a deeper understanding of the causes of vascular cognitive impairment and dementia. She also works on projects to identify biomarkers for immune and cardiovascular diseases, which could improve diagnostic precision and early-stage detection.
With a doctorate in neurogenetics and molecular biology from the University of Oxford and a medical degree from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Dr. Elahi brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her practice. She completed her residency in neurology at UCLA Health and a fellowship in neurodegenerative disorders at UCSF. As an Assistant Professor, Dr. Elahi is dedicated to advancing research and finding innovative therapies for degenerative brain diseases.
