Professional Activities

Dr. Lindsay Clark is a faculty member in the Division of Geriatrics and Gerontology in the Department of Medicine. As a neuropsychologist specializing in geriatrics, Dr. Clark provides diagnostic assessments and treatment planning as part of the UW Sauk Prairie Outreach clinic and VA Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center (GRECC) Connect Teledementia and Cognitive Care Clinics.

She leads research projects to address barriers to early detection of cognitive impairment, including developing best practices for disclosure of AD biomarker results as well as investigating the feasibility, reliability, and validity of digital cognitive tools and direct-to-home televideo memory evaluations. She collaborates on large multi-site studies, including leading the Neuropsychology service within the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center and serving as site PI for a national study evaluating video-based cognitive assessment.

Dr. Clark has provided continuing medical education to clinicians on topics in geriatric neuropsychology, and clinical instruction to neuropsychology and psychology trainees.
