Jeff Victoroff

Jeff Victoroff, MD is a Clinical Associate Professor of Neurology at the University of Southern California (part-time). His work bridges neurology, psychiatry, and neuroscience, focusing on neuropsychiatric disorders, traumatic brain injury, and aggression mechanisms. He has contributed to diagnostic criteria for traumatic encephalopathy and explored the neurobiological underpinnings of aggression in conflict zones like Gaza.

Key research interests include neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer’s, schizophrenia spectrum), neuroimaging biomarkers, and psychopharmacological interventions. His publications address gaps in traditional neuropsychological assessments, behavioral changes in dementia, and the pharmacological management of aggression in psychiatric populations.

Victoroff’s work spans 30+ years, integrating clinical practice with public health implications. Notable contributions include analyzing religio-political aggression in adolescents and exploring neuroendocrine factors in conflict psychology. He maintains an active publication record across high-impact journals like Brain Injury, Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, and Psychiatry.
