Dr. Jeremy G. Grant is a clinical neuropsychologist and the director of the Cognitive Health in Late Life (CHILL) Lab.
He completed a bachelor’s degree in biology at Andrews University and a master’s degree in neuroscience from Carleton University. He obtained a master’s degree and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at Wayne State University. He subsequently completed a predoctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship in clinical neuropsychology in the Department of Clinical & Health Psychology at the University of Florida. He joined Ohio State as an instructor in Autumn 2024 and will transition to tenure-track assistant professor in Autumn 2026.
Dr. Grant’s research aims to promote brain health in populations at greatest risk for dementia. His work has been funded by the Alzheimer's Association, the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Health Enhancement Scientific Program, the Florida Department of Health, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan. The lab’s current research topics include:
Early detection of cognitive decline: Identifying early signs of cognitive decline and examining barriers and facilitators of research participation among older adults.
Primary Prevention of dementia: Reducing the risk of dementia via a community-based, multidomain, non-pharmacological intervention for individuals at risk for cognitive decline due to cardiometabolic disease.
Secondary Prevention of dementia: Helping individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) prevent dementia onset and compensate for memory loss via cognitive rehabilitation.
