Biography Joined UT Southwestern: 2017 Clinical Interests: Brendan Kelley, M.D., is the Clinical Vice-Chair of the Department of Neurology at UT Southwestern Medical Center. He specializes in the evaluation and study of neurological causes of impairment in memory and cognition. Dr. Kelley is highly committed to the care of patients having disorders of memory and cognition. He regularly receives accolades for his outstanding patient satisfaction and collegiality. Trainee Education: Dr. Kelley is the Program Director of the Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry Fellowship. His enthusiasm for the field and dedication to the role of educator contribute meaningfully to the education of residents, graduate students, and fellows, ensuring the future progress of treating these challenging diseases. Research: Dr. Kelley’s research activity focuses on the clinical translation of novel techniques to study emerging techniques to better identify changes in the brain and spinal fluid related to Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. He collaborates with investigators in many of the research labs at UT Southwestern that conduct basic scientific investigations aimed to better understand the biological processes that cause neurodegeneration, and to improve our ability to detect these changes before irreversible cognitive impairments have occurred. He also participates in clinical research trials conducted throughout the United States which are aimed to test new compounds as potential treatments for dementia. Dr. Kelley has authored numerous peer-reviewed scientific articles and book chapters related to Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Background: A native of Ohio, Dr. Kelley earned his medical degree at The Ohio State University and the Executive MBA Program at The Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business. He also earned a master’s degree in Physics at Cornell University. Dr. Kelley completed a residency in neurology at the Cleveland Clinic and then received advanced fellowship training in Behavioral Neurology and Multiple Sclerosis at the Mayo Clinic. Dr. Kelley returned to The Ohio State University in 2014, where his clinical work and research focused on Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia. While there, he established a fellowship program in Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry. Before that, he served as the Bob and Sandy Heimann Chair for Alzheimer’s Disease Research and Education in the University of Cincinnati Department of Neurology from 2008 to 2013. Certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and in Behavioral Neurology by the Unified Council of Neurological Subspecialties, Dr. Kelley proudly joined the UT Southwestern faculty in 2017.
