Jelena Djordjevic, PhD
Jelena Djordjevic is a clinical neuropsychologist. She sees patients with Parkinson鈥檚 disease and other movement disorders, brain tumours, cerebrovascular disorders, and various other conditions affecting brain health. She provides comprehensive assessments as well as treatment and reintegration recommendations to neurological and neurosurgical patients, and supervises doctoral and postdoctoral candidates whose career goal is to practice clinical neuropsychology. Her research focuses on cognition, olfaction and the quality of life of neurological patients. Topics of interest in relation to Parkinson鈥檚 disease include the heterogeneity of cognitive profiles, the prediction of cognitive outcomes following surgical treatment, the evolution of cognitive impairment, the relationships between olfaction and cognition and their impact on patients鈥� quality of life, the perception of pleasant versus unpleasant odours in normal aging and their association with nutrition and quality of life, the modulation of olfactory perception by cognitive processes and the neuroanatomical correlates of human olfaction. Djordjevic is a member of the Order of Psychologists of Quebec (OPQ) and an OPQ-certified neuropsychologist. She has a joint Assistant Professor appointment in the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery and Department of Psychology, 平特五不中.
