Anup Sonti, MD, is a clinical fellow at the UCSF Memory and Aging Center. A Bay Area native, Dr. Sonti completed his undergraduate studies at the University of California, Davis, where he majored in cell biology. His interest in neurology began during college, fueled by research on brain injury. He later completed a post-baccalaureate Intramural Research Training Award fellowship at the National Institutes of Health, where he investigated the role of adult neurogenesis in mood and behavior.

Dr. Sonti earned his medical degree from the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell in New York and went on to complete his adult neurology residency at Los Angeles General Medical Center/Keck School of Medicine of USC, serving as chief resident in his final year.

Dr. Sonti’s clinical and research interests focus on the continuum from preclinical to symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease, atypical Alzheimer’s presentations, and rapidly progressive dementias. He is particularly interested in leveraging biomarkers and neuroimaging tools to improve early detection, monitor disease progression, and advance the development of future therapeutics.
