Daniel E. Huddleston, MD

Dr. Huddleston is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Emory University. As a physician-scientist, he sees patients in the Emory Movement Disorders Clinic and conducts translational MRI research for neurodegenerative diseases. He received his medical degree from Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons, in 2006. He then completed his neurology residency training at Columbia’s Neurological Institute of New York, followed by a fellowship in movement disorders neurology at the Emory Movement Disorders Clinic. 

Dr. Huddleston’s Parkinsonism Neuroimaging Laboratory (www.pdmrilab.org) focuses on the development and application of neuroimaging methods to study Parkinson’s disease (PD) and related disorders. He uses MRI and multimodal approaches to quantify neuromelanin, iron, and molecular tissue characteristics relevant to neurodegeneration in humans and model systems. The central aim of this research is to develop and apply novel imaging tools to accelerate therapeutics development and precision medicine for PD and related conditions.
