James M. Noble, MD, MS

Professor of Neurology (in the Taub Institute for Research on Alzheimer's Disease and the Aging Brain and the Gertrude H. Sergievsky Center) at the Columbia University Medical Center

Tel: (212) 305-6939

Jamie Noble completed his undergraduate studies in math and chemistry at Vanderbilt University, followed by medical school at Emory University. Beginning in 2002, his graduate medical training included internal medicine internship, neurology residency including chief resident in neurology, and finally neuroepidemiology and behavioral neurology fellowship, all at Columbia University Medical Center. He is Professor of Neurology at Columbia University, at the Taub Institute for Alzheimer's Disease and the Aging Brain at Columbia University and the GH Sergievsky Center. Jamie has had many educational roles at Columbia including neurology clerkship director (2009-2016), co-director of the preclinical neuroscience course (2017-present) and founding co-director of the NIA supported BRAIN T35 program which supports 25 medical students in learning research methods and leading projects each summer. In addition to patient care of general neurologic patients as well as those with dementia, his research interests include health literacy, vascular risk factors, and potentially modifiable lifecourse risk factors as contributors to stroke and dementia health disparities. Jamie is also the president of Arts & Minds, Inc, a non-profit organization promoting well-being for dementia patients and their caregivers via art-centered experiences in multiple museums and online. Since 2021 he has been co-editor of Merritt’s Neurology (14th edition, Wolters-Kluwer) and in 2024 co-edited Merritt’s Neurology Review, the first for the longstanding textbook. In 2022 he authored the caregiver handbook Navigating Life with Dementia, published by the American Academy of Neurology and Oxford University Press.
