       Overview 
       Overview
      Dr. Judy Pa is an Assistant Professor in Neurology at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). She received a Ph.D in Psychology from UC Irvine and completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Neurodegenerative Disease at UCSF.

      Dr. Pa's research program focuses on the investigation of functional and structural MRI changes in attention and memory networks in healthy older adults and individuals at increased risk for developing Alzheimer's disease. She uses a combination of cognitive, behavioral and neuroimaging techniques to identify the earliest signs of cognitive decline. While Dr. Pa maintains a strong research program, she strives for a balanced research, teaching and mentoring career. She is currently the Principal Investigator of a study on Mild Cognitive Impairment from the National Institute on Aging.
