Daniel Mamah, M.D. 

Daniel Mamah, M.D. is an NIMH post-doctoral fellow and clinical Instructor at the Washington University Department of Psychiatry, where he completed his psychiatry residency training in June 2005. He obtained his medical degree from the Semmelweis University of Medicine in Budapest, Hungary, after completing high school education in Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

Dr. Mamah is working with John Csernansky, M.D. using imaging techniques to study changes in the brains of patients with schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Projects aim to develop precise measures of neuroanatomical structure, and their correlations with brain activity, cognition, elements of clinical symptoms, and treatment. Dr. Mamah’s current project involves volumetric and morphometric studies of the basal ganglia in schizophrenia using high dimensional MRI. His general research interests include structural and functional neuroimaging of psychiatric disorders, basic pathophysiologic mechanisms in schizophrenia, and epidemiology of psychopathology in adults.

Dr. Mamah currently serves on the Board of Trustees of the American Psychiatric Association, as Member-in-Training Trustee. He also sees patients at the Midwest Psychiatry outpatient clinic, and supervises Washington University psychiatry residents and medial students.
