Jonas Vanags is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurology at the Medical College of Georgia, Augusta University. He is actively involved in clinical education and scholarship within neurology, with a focus on neuropsychiatric and cognitive outcomes following neurosurgical interventions.
Education:
- MD in Medicine, Medical College of Georgia, 2009
- BS in Biology, University of Georgia, 2004
- BA in Music, University of Georgia, 2004
His research interests center on clinical neurology, particularly neuropsychiatric complications after brain surgery. His work explores the intersection of neuroanatomy, cognition, and behavior, especially in the context of hemispherectomy and cortical reorganization.
The available publication indicates a focus on rare neurological phenomena, specifically visual hallucinations following hemispherectomy, reflecting an interest in post-surgical cognitive and perceptual disorders. This work contributes to understanding brain plasticity and dysfunction in extreme neuroanatomical conditions.
Scientific Awards and Certifications:
- GA Composite Medical Board Certification in Psychiatry, 2014
