Meaghan O'Malley Morris is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pathology at Johns Hopkins University. She specializes in Neuropathology and has a focused research program aimed at understanding the molecular basis of Alzheimer’s disease and age-related dementias. Her research combines insights gained from brain tissue donated by patients with age-related neurodegenerative diseases and studies in cell culture systems. Employing cutting-edge molecular techniques, her investigations aim to uncover new pathways involved in Alzheimer’s pathogenesis. Currently, she is particularly interested in the role of neuronal function and synapse regulation by tau, a key protein involved in the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Dr. Morris completed her medical education and residency at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, earning her MD/PhD in 2016 and finishing her residency in Anatomic Pathology in 2020. She is board certified in both Neuropathology and Anatomic Pathology and actively contributes to clinical practice while leading transformative research in her field.
