Rebecca Steketee

Rebecca Steketee is a Researcher at Erasmus MC, Department of Radiology & Nuclear Medicine. Her work is centered on neuroimaging and neurodegenerative disorders, with a strong focus on white matter hyperintensities and their impact on cognitive function.

Her research interests lie at the intersection of neuroscience, radiology, and dementia pathology. She investigates how vascular risks and amyloid pathology contribute to structural brain changes visible on MRI, particularly white matter hyperintensities, and how these relate to cognitive decline and neuropsychiatric symptoms in memory clinic populations.

The recent trend in her publications shows a consistent focus on large-scale, multicenter studies utilizing advanced neuroimaging techniques like arterial spin labeling and lesion-symptom mapping. Her work frequently explores the interplay between amyloid-beta deposition, vascular risk factors, and connectivity disruptions in the brain, aiming to improve early prediction of cognitive disorders.

Rebecca Steketee actively collaborates with major research consortia such as the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative and has contributed to numerous high-impact studies in leading neurology and dementia journals.
