Biography: 

Dr. Vitali is a board-certified neurologist and neuropsychologist. He is neurologist at the CIUSSS Ouest-de-l鈥櫭巐e-de-Montr茅al and at the 成人VR视频 Research Centre for Studies in Aging.

Dr. Vitali obtained a PhD in Clinical Psychology from University Vita-Salute San Raffaele, Italy,聽in 2004 and in Biomedical Sciences (Neuropsychology) from Universit茅 de Montr茅al in 2007. His research focus was on language disorders (aphasia) and cerebral plasticity following brain damage as measured by neuroimaging techniques. Since 2005, he has been a registered neuropsychologist with the Ordre des Psychologues du Qu茅bec. After graduating from the Medical School of Universit茅 Laval in 2010, he completed a residency program in Neurology at Universit茅 de Montr茅al and a PGY6 training in electromyography at 成人VR视频 (2015). During his clinical training in neurology, he continued his research training. As part of his residency program he completed a two-month research fellowship at the Memory and Aging Center (UCSF-San Francisco) working on the identification of early-affected brain regions responsible for language deficits in atypical forms of dementia, and a six-month research rotation at the 成人VR视频 Research Centre for Studies in Aging working on the physiopathological mechanisms underlying dementia. His research training was聽funded by the FRQS in 2015. He has also collaborated in research studies funded by the Alzheimer鈥檚 Society, the Heart and Stroke Foundation, and the Canadian Institute of Health Research. Dr. Vitali is currently involved in the assessment and follow-up of patients presenting with neurodegenerative diseases, especially atypical dementia presenting with language impairments. He is an investigator in clinical trials for Alzheimer. He is also a clinical supervisor of PhD students in neuropsychology.聽
