Sol Morrissey, PhD

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Schulich School of Engineering, University of Calgary. My research focuses on understanding how cognitive trajectories and neurological disease staging relates to real-world behaviour and mobility-related activities. My current research specifically focuses on driving behaviour as a digital tool for dementia diagnosis. I am also working on the development of dementia risk prediction tools to support early diagnosis and prevention of neurological disorders. My research ambition is to bridge clinical research with data-driven approaches to inform health policy development.

Prior to joining the University of Calgary, I completed my PhD in Applied Dementia Research at the Norwich Medical School, University of East Anglia, where my research focused on establishing how cognitive performance impacts driving behaviour in ageing and dementia.
