neuropsychologist

A neuropsychologist is a specialist who studies the relationship between the brain and behavior. They assess how brain injuries, diseases, or disorders affect thinking, memory, emotions, and behavior. Through various tests and evaluations, they help identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Neuropsychologists often work with patients recovering from strokes, traumatic brain injuries, or conditions like Alzheimer's disease. Their goal is to understand how brain function influences everyday life and to provide insights for treatment and rehabilitation, aiding both patients and healthcare teams in optimizing care and support.
