Research-Driven Neuropsychology | Expert Concierge Care
Our concierge neuropsychological evaluations are shaped by active research in machine learning, brain mapping, and diagnostic efficiency published by Oxford University Press.
Bridging the Gap Between Bench Science and Clinical Care
In the field of brain health, expertise is defined by those who stay at the leading edge of discovery. For our concierge and direct-access clients, the value of an evaluation lies in its scientific foundation. We believe that a neuropsychological assessment should not merely rely on decades-old standards, but should be guided by the most current evidence—often generated by the very clinicians conducting the evaluation.
Our practice is defined by active contribution to the global scientific community, with research featured by Oxford University Press, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, and the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology (AACN).
Innovation in Teaching and Testing: The AACN Workshop
Our commitment to the field is evidenced by our leadership in professional education. In June 2024, alongside esteemed colleagues from UCLA and other institutions, we presented the workshop 'Technology and innovation in neuropsychological teaching, testing, and treatment: Practical solutions for practitioners and educators' at the AACN 2024 Conference. This work defines the national standard for modern, tech-integrated brain care, ensuring that the tools we use in your evaluation are the most valid and reliable instruments available today.
Optimizing Diagnostic Accuracy and Efficiency
For high-achieving professionals, time is a finite resource. Our research actively explores the balance between testing depth and efficiency. In the manuscript 'Longer is better? Evaluating diagnostic accuracy and efficiency of short vs. long neuropsychological batteries' (under review in Archive of Clinical Neuropsychology), we utilized Monte Carlo simulation studies to determine how to achieve maximum diagnostic certainty in the shortest possible timeframe. This ensures your concierge evaluation is high-yield and scientifically rigorous.
Advanced Brain Mapping and Executive Functioning
Understanding how the brain communicates is critical for diagnosing complex conditions like ADHD and Frontotemporal Dementia. Our 2025 publication in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 'Hubs, influencers, and communities of executive functions: A task-based fMRI graph analysis,' applies advanced graph theory to map the brain's functional connectivity. By identifying the specific neural 'hubs' that manage initiation and inhibition, we provide a more sophisticated interpretation of your cognitive strengths and weaknesses.
Predictive Modeling and Traumatic Brain Injury
We are pioneers in applying data science to clinical recovery. Presented at the INS 2022 Convention, our research on 'Machine learning models to predict the outcome of traumatic brain injury' demonstrates our ability to move beyond simple observation. By using machine learning, we can provide patients with a data-driven, accurate prognosis for their recovery journey.
In addition to original research, our work contributes to the stewardship of scientific standards across the field. Dr. Davis serves as a peer reviewer for Springer Nature’s Neuroradiology journal and other leading scientific publications, ensuring that emerging neuroimaging and brain research meets rigorous methodological and clinical relevance criteria. She is also actively engaged in professional thought leadership, including ongoing newsletter and educational contributions for ABPP and the AACN (DTI), helping guide the responsible integration of innovation into clinical neuropsychology.
