Promotion for the CDR’s Ying Jiang

New York – Dr. Ying Jiang from the Center for Dementia Research has been promoted to Research Scientist 4 after a peer review by the Office of Mental Health. Dr. Jiang started her career at the CDR in 1997 where she has dedicated herself to the research and study of Alzheimer’s and other neurological diseases. In 2005, she was appointed Clinical Instructor at the NYU School of Medicine, followed by a promotion to Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry. Dr. Jiang has co-authored over 30 peer reviewed-journal publications, including multiple highly cited publications as first author. She is the co-applicant of a 2002 approved patent and, as a co-investigator on NIH grants, she has generated findings that continue to be fundamental to the successful awarding of research grants to the CDR.
