Dr Yifat Glikmann-Johnston completed a Clinical Master in Neuropsychology and PhD at The University of Melbourne. From there she undertook post-doctoral training and worked as a Clinical Neuropsychologist at Tel Aviv University and Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center with the support of the European Commission 7th Framework Programme Marie Curie International Reintegration Grant. Dr Glikmann-Johnston joined Monash University School of Psychological Sciences in 2014 and soon after was awarded an NHMRC-ARC Dementia Research Development Fellowship to gain training in Huntington’s disease research. Currently, she is a Huntington’s Disease Society of America Research Fellow, and Deputy Lead of the Ageing and Neurodegeneration Research Program at the Turner Institute for Brain and Mental Health. Dr Glikmann-Johnston’s research in Huntington’s disease focuses on cognition and the relationship between cognitive function and brain structure, gut microbiome, and sleep.
