Eileen H. Bigio, MD
Professor of Pathology
Division of Neuropathology
Director of the Neuropathology Core of the Nortwestern Alzheimer's Disease
Center, Dr. Bigio evaluates the pathology of all cases that come to autopsy and
provides tissues and consultation to research investigators requesting such
services from the Neuropathology Core. Areas of specific interest include
frontotemporal degenerations and motor neuron disease, wth a current focus on
the roles of morphologic abnormalities, such as ubiquitin and tau positive
inclusions, in frontotemporal dementia, motor neuron disease-associated
dementia, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, variations in the pathology
underlying primary progressive aphasia, and identification of the major protein
component of the ubiquitinated deposits in FTD-MND. Dr. Bigio also collaborates
with basic science investigators in evaluating the neuropathology of their
mouse models of neurodegenerative disease.

Emily Rogalski, PhD
Research Assistant Professor
Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine
Dr. Rogalski's lab within the Cognitive Neurology and Alzheimer's Disease Center (CNADC) focuses on structural neuroimaging related to cognitive systems in healthy aging and disease. Her studies investigate the relationship between cognitive mechanisms of language and memory and structural brain changes that accompany aging and dementia. Training in her lab provides students with skills for image analysis and synthesis of brain structure and function.
