Anna S. Nordvig, MD, MS

Assistant Professor
Weill Cornell Medicine
New York, New York, United States

Dr. Anna S. Nordvig is an Assistant Professor of Neurology and Neuroscience and a U.S. board-certified Attending Neurologist at the Memory Disorders and Post-COVID Brain Fog Clinics in the Department of Neurology, Weill Cornell Medicine, NY Presbyterian. She completed her postdoctoral fellowship in Behavioral Neurology and Neuropsychiatry in the Division of Aging and Dementia, and her neurological residency, at the Neurological Institute at Columbia University. In spring 2020, she served as a neurological consultant for neurological COVID-19 inpatient complications. When she returned to her outpatient cognitive practice after May 2020, she built an outpatient clinical and translational research program in post-COVID encephalopathy otherwise known as “brain fog” particularly for patients who developed deficits despite mild acute COVID courses, and has treated over 200 patients. Some of her findings are published in Neurology: Clinical Practice, Nature Medicine, npj Nature Parkinson’s Disease, and Acta Neuropathologica. She has also presented at the AD/PD Annual Conference, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Conference on Neurodegeneration, the BRAIN Annual Conference, Dysautonomia International, the Irving Institute, CDC, UCSD. She has taught Continuing Medical Education courses on this topic and has contributed to UpToDate. She is working to characterize post-COVID-19 encephalopathy through neuropsychological phenotyping, biofluidics and imaging techniques, in search of symptomatic and mechanistic biomarkers and treatments. Her goal is to understand the implications of post-COVID-19 brain fog for neurodegeneration by developing biomarkers – is it a risk factor, an early biomarker, or a trigger? Her research funding includes the National Institutes of Health, the National Institute on Aging Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center Career Development Award, the NeuroNext Fellowship, and the Feil Clinical Scholar II Award.
