Dr. Maheen Mausoof Adamson is a Clinical Associate Professor of Neurosurgery (Affiliated) at Stanford University School of Medicine and Clinical Research Director for Rehabilitation Services at VA Palo Alto. Adamson completed her undergraduate degrees in neurobiology and women studies at the University of California, Irvine. She completed her Ph.D. in neuroscience from the University of Southern California and a postdoctoral fellowship in Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Adamson is currently completing a Master of Science in Healthcare Leadership at Brown University. She has also completed the 2021 Innovation Faculty Fellowship at Stanford’s Byers Center for Biodesign. Dr. Adamson’s expertise include translating neuroscience methodologies for diagnostic and treatments (such as repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS)) for frequent health problems in patients with brain injury, psychiatric problems, and Alzheimer's disease. She has employed advanced structural and functional imaging, biomarker assessments and innovative therapies such as virtual reality in Veteran, active military and civilian populations with these health problems. She has been a leader in identifying gender differences in brain injury. She currently serves as PI and Site-PI on numerous neuromodulation clinical trials and collaborates internationally for developing advanced diagnostic methods in neuroimaging, especially in underserved communities.
