Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Shannon Doerhoff's research focuses on the gait and non-motor characteristics of Parkinson's disease, particularly in relation to medication effects and disease progression. Her work has investigated freezing of gait (FOG), a common and debilitating symptom. Specific studies have examined the phenotype associated with levodopa ONOFF-state FOG, as well as levodopa unresponsive FOG, aiming to define the associated gait and non-motor features. Doerhoff has also explored therapeutic interventions, including a delayed-start trial of modafinil for FOG in Parkinson's disease. Her research is supported by collaborations with colleagues at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Aliyah Glover and Tuhin Virmani, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. Doerhoff has published six total publications, accumulating 111 citations, and holds an h-index of 4.
