Biography

A/Prof Genevieve Steiner is a cognitive neuroscientist and her research spans the early detection, prevention, and treatment of memory and thinking problems in older people with the aim of reducing dementia risk and improving quality of life. The research that A/Prof Steiner and her team conducts examines changes in the brain’s function and structure to discover biomarkers for dementia and test novel therapeutics that can provide early intervention.

A/Prof Steiner is Director of Research at the NICM Health Research Institute where she leads the NICM Neurocognition and HEADBOX Lab, she is an NHMRC Emerging Leadership Fellow and Co-Director of the Age and Ageing Clinical Academic Group for the Sydney Partnership for Health, Education, Research, and Enterprise (SPHERE).

She has attracted >$14M in competitive grant funding: >$6M as a chief investigator and >$9M as an associate investigator.

The overall aim of A/Prof Steiner's research is to improve the health outcomes of people at risk of cognitive decline and people living with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia across two main areas:

1. Timely, accurate and cost-effective diagnosis due to an increased understanding of the brain activity in people at risk of cognitive decline, and;

2. Evidence-based natural treatments and lifestyle modifications that are safe, feasible and can be implemented early.
