Rate My Professor John Hodges

Professor Hodges specializes in cognitive aspects of neurodegenerative disorders, with a primary focus on frontotemporal dementia. The Frontier team examines apathy in dementia, social cognition and memory changes, structural and functional brain progression, metabolic changes, severity rating scales, neuropathology, genetics, clinical and biological markers, cognition in motor neurone disease, and impacts on patients, carers, and families. Research integrates cognitive testing, neuroimaging, and interventions for support. He has published over 450 journal articles and five books, including Cognitive Assessment for Clinicians, Early Onset Dementia, and Frontotemporal Dementia Syndromes. Major publications include Classification of primary progressive aphasia and its variants (2011) and Sensitivity of revised diagnostic criteria for the behavioural variant of frontotemporal dementia (2011). He developed the Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination Revised (2006) and its successor ACE-III (2013), widely used for dementia screening. Awards include the Bengt Winblad Lifetime Achievement Award in Alzheimer’s Disease Research (2015), and he ranks among Nature’s top 400 most-cited biomedical scientists.
