OverviewAI-generated summary
Jennifer L. Gess is a Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Her research investigates cognitive performance and quality of life in individuals with epilepsy, examining the effects of factors such as age of onset and medication. She has also studied the diagnostic utility of the Judgement of Line Orientation test in distinguishing cognitive impairment severity in older adults. Gess's work includes an analysis of embedded neuropsychological testing variations in major neurocognitive disorders and an assessment of neuropsychological testing practices at epilepsy centers. Her recent publications also explore the functional link between myelination integrity in the cingulum bundle and information processing speed in individuals with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, as well as neuropsychological outcomes following laser interstitial thermal therapy for epilepsy. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 7, with 14 total publications and 249 total citations. She collaborates with several researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Jennifer Sue Kleiner and Chrystal Fullen.
