Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Memory And Aging Center
Dr. Adam Boxer is a neurologist at the UCSF Memory and Aging Center who specializes in Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia and atypical parkinsonism – in particular, corticobasal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy. Boxer obtained his medical and doctoral degrees as part of the Medical Scientist Training Program at New York University School of Medicine, a program funded by the National Institutes of Health. He completed a residency in neurology at Stanford University Medical Center and a fellowship in behavioral neurology at UCSF. Boxer directs the clinical neurology research unit for the Sandler Neurosciences Center at Mission Bay, as well as the clinical trials program for Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia at the Memory and Aging Center. Boxer received the Edwin Boldrey Award from the San Francisco Neurological Society in 2002 for basic research in neurological disease, the 2005 John Douglas French Alzheimer's Foundation Alzheimer's Award and a 2009 Hellman Family Foundation fellowship. Dr. Boxer is highly rated in 21 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Atypical, Supranuclear Ophthalmoplegia, and Corticobasal Degeneration.

Memory And Aging Center
Dr. William Seeley works at the UCSF Memory and Aging Center. He cares for patients with neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). In 2011, Seeley was named a MacArthur Foundation Fellow for his research on understanding FTD and other neurodegenerative diseases. His research focuses on why dementias target specific nerve cell populations. The goal is to discover what makes brain tissues susceptible or resistant to degeneration and to translate these findings into new treatments. Seeley earned his medical degree at UCSF, where he also completed an internship in internal medicine. He completed a residency in neurology at the Massachusetts General and Brigham and Women's hospitals in Boston, followed by a fellowship in behavioral neurology at UCSF.
