Charles Malpas is an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Neuroscience at Monash University, where he contributes as a clinical neuropsychologist, neuroscientist, and educator. His research is deeply integrated with clinical neurology, focusing on cognitive and neuropsychiatric aspects of neurological disorders.
His research interests include the clinical neuropsychology of seizure disorders, neurodegenerative diseases such as frontotemporal dementia and progressive supranuclear palsy, and neuroinflammatory conditions including autoimmune encephalitis, multiple sclerosis, and related antibody-mediated disorders. His work significantly contributes to the understanding of cognitive trajectories and biomarker development in these populations.
The most recent articles reflect a strong emphasis on biomarkers (especially neurofilament light), cognitive characterization, and psychopathological features across a spectrum of neurological illnesses. His publications demonstrate a trend toward prospective clinical studies, systematic reviews, and collaborative multi-center research.
His scientific contributions are supported by active involvement in major research projects, including:
- Australian Autoimmune Encephalitis Consortium Study
- SELECT Trial: Sodium selenate for drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy
- Sodium selenate trials for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and behavioural variant Frontotemporal Dementia
- Biomarkers to prevent disability in multiple sclerosis
These projects are funded by national bodies such as the Department of Health and Aged Care (Australia) and involve extensive collaboration with leading neurologists and neuroscientists across Australia. While no formal students are listed, his role as Chief Investigator suggests active mentorship and supervision within research teams.
He has no listed scientific awards in the provided text. He leads or co-leads several active, high-impact clinical research initiatives, indicating sustained grant funding and research leadership.
Charles Malpas is embedded in a robust research network focused on improving diagnosis, outcomes, and quality of care for patients with complex neurological conditions. His work bridges clinical neuropsychology with cutting-edge neuroscience and biomarker research.
