Ms. Priscilla A. Amofa-Ho., M.A., M.S., completed her undergraduate degree at Carleton College with a major in Psychology and a minor in Neuroscience. After a one-year service with the AmeriCorps VISTA program upon graduating undergraduate, Priscilla took a clinical research coordinator position at the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center at Rush University Medical Center (RADC), Chicago. In this position, she obtained and examined biological samples in quest of identifying biomarkers for various Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (ADRDs), as well as enrolled and administered neurocognitive assessments to diverse research participants in different clinical trials aimed at preventing or reducing further cognitive decline. At the RADC, Priscilla worked under the mentorship of Drs. Robert Wilson, PhD; Lisa Barnes,PhD; Neelum Aggarwal, MD; Debra Fleischman, PhD; Raj Shah, MD; and Melissa Lamar, PhD. During her time at Rush, she also completed her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Roosevelt University, with a one-year internship at an in-patient psychiatric ward at Rush University Medical Center, Chicago under the mentorship of Dr. Sandra Swantek, DO. Priscilla entered the Clinical and Health Psychology program at the University of Florida in the fall of 2018, with a major area of study in Clinical Neuropsychology under the mentorship of Drs. Glenn Smith, PhD and Shellie-Anne Levy, PhD. Under their mentorship, she was selected as an NIH ADRD T32 fellow engaging in advanced training and coursework in ADRD research and had the opportunity to join experts in finding biomarkers and interventions related to ADRD. Priscilla’s research and clinical interests are in mild cognitive impairment (MCI), ADRDs, implementation of behavioral interventions to prevent or delay cognitive impairment, cross-cultural translation of assessment measures, and adaptation of behavioral interventions for underserved populations. Specifically, she is interested in identifying biomarkers and risk factors that predict cognitive decline in older adults and employing lifestyle modifications to mitigate cognitive decline.
