James M. Noble
James M. Noble completed his undergraduate studies in math and chemistry at Vanderbilt University, followed by medical school at Emory University. His graduate medical training included an internal medicine internship, a neurology residency, a chief resident in neurology, and a neuroepidemiology and behavioral neurology fellowship, all at Columbia University Medical Center. Accordingly, Dr. Noble is board certified in neurology, behavioral neurology & neuropsychiatry, and public health.
He primarily sees patients with dementia but is also involved in multidisciplinary clinical and research efforts to support patients with persistent post-concussive symptoms. Dr. Noble is fluent in Spanish, and his comprehensive approach to care views the patient within the entire family dynamic, with a particular focus on disadvantaged communities.
Aside from his clinical work and commitment to neurologic education, Dr. Noble directs and supports several longitudinal NIH-supported research initiatives related to Columbia’s Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center, all of which aim to identify novel life course modifiable risk factors for cognitive aging and means to improve public health literacy.
